Having purchased a 1994 Kenwood music system from a Charity shop in 2013 (it was a high end product in its day), I found myself not quite knowing where to plug in what, and how to do this, that and the next thing. I needed a Manual, and after failure with another online 'Manual provider' I found Owner Manuals dot com. Well, I wasn't sure, but it was only $5, and if things didn't work out, I wouldn't have lost much...
But things DID work out. After paying my childrens inheritance money, $4.99, I was sent a Manual for my Kenwood System very quickly. Alas, it was in German, and being Scottish, I could not read it or get my system in order from it...a rapid email to them brought the English Manual in short order, and my retro-system was and IS up and running in it's regulation settings.
I am very grateful to http://www.owner-manuals.com for their quick service and for even having such an obsolete Manual in the first place! If you need a Manual for ANYTHING, try here first. I wouldn't be surprised if I bought a 1928 Marconi radio, and got the user Manual for THAT here too!
Top marks.

I was so happy that the owner's manual was available. It is well written and helped me to use the radio/CD player/recorder without problems. Thanks for making it available.

Thanks so much for the Owner's manual for my Sony PS - FL1. I had purchased the turntable off of eBay. It came in and looked great. Packed well and appeared to be great. I balanced and aligned the tone are and hooked it up. When trying to play a record the tone are would move to the right place and just before it would drop to play it moved back off the edge of the record before touching down. I searched the net for an answer to this issue. No luck. Then I purchased the owners manual and sure enough there was a place to adjust where the stylus touched down. That adjustment solved the problem and saved me a $35 feet to have the player checked out. The manual is well written and easy to understand. It is a must have for anyone with this front loading Sony turntable.
Some years back I pruchased a Sansui G-9000. I had it cleaned up and a problem with the left channel repaired. When I got it back I hooked it up to my tape decks, turn tables, TV and it played great. The only thing I was not really satisfied with was the performance of my Graphic Equalizer. I purchased this owner's manual had poured myself a cup of coffee. The manual is well organized and written in plain language. It also contained the solution to my dissatisfaction. By using the preamp connections coupled I was able to run everything through my graphic equalizer and now enjoy the full potential of my complete system.

Food Storage & Energy Saving Ideas
FOOD STORAGE IDEAS
Fresh Food Storage � The fresh food compartment should be kept between 1.1° C and 4.4° C with an optimum temperature of 2.8° C. � Avoid overcrowding the fridge-freezer shelves. This reduces the circulation of air around the food and results in uneven cooling. Fruits and Vegetables � Storage in the crisper drawers traps moisture to help preserve the fruit and vegetable quality for longer time periods. Meat � Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely so leakage and contamination of other foods or surfaces does not occur. Frozen Food Storage � The freezer compartment should be kept at 0° F or lower. � A freezer operates most efficiently when it is at least 2/3 full. Packaging Foods for Freezing � To minimize dehydration and quality deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags or airtight containers. Force as much air out of the packages as possible and seal them tightly. Trapped air can cause food to dry out, change color, and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn). � Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable freezer wrap prior to freezing. � Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed. Loading the Freezer � Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at one time. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of freezing, and can raise the temperature of frozen foods. � Leave a space between the packages, so cold air can circulate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly as possible. � Avoid storing hard-to-freeze foods such as ice cream and orange juice on the freezer door shelves. These foods are best stored in the freezer interior where the temperature varies less.
ENERGY SAVING IDEAS
� Locate the fridge-freezer in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight, and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the fridgefreezer next to heat-producing appliances such as a cooker, range, oven, or dishwasher. If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between the two appliances will help the fridge-freezer operate more efficiently. Level the fridge-freezer so that the doors close tightly. Refer to this Use & Care Manual for the suggested temperature control settings. Do not overcrowd the fridge-freezer or block cold air vents. Doing so causes the fridge-freezer to run longer and use more energy. Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the fridge-freezer. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit. Organize the fridge-freezer to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
