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.

WASHING HINTS
Load the washing machine
Check the quantity you are going to wash for each cycle. It is rather difficult to weigh all the pieces to be washed. We therefore advise you: Cotton and linen: pressing. Synthetic resistant : fill two thirds of the drum. Delicates and wool: fill half the drum. fill the drum without
Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric, colour fastness and how dirty it is. When washing curtains remove the hooks. It is essential to wash new coloured items separately when washing them for the first time. When washing fabrics requiring different wash temperatures together , always select the lowest one. White items should NOT be washed with coloured ones. For wool use gentle detergents only in small quantities. Only wool marked �PURE NEW WOOL WASHABLE PRESHRUNK� can be washed in the machine using the wool program; other types of wool should be washed by hand or dry cleaned. Some stains such as fruit, wine, grass, rust, blood, etc. are difficult to remove and should be treated before washing with specific products which can be found in most household shops. In any case they should be treated immediately , later on they are difficult to remove. Damp laundry should be hung out to dry as soon as possible after finishing the wash. Knitwear and woollens should be dried flat, away from direct sunlight. On the care labels in most clothes wash code symbols can be found which help you to select the adequate wash program. You are advised to observe and follow these instructions. On the following table you will find the meaning of the symbols.
Temperatures
You are advised to wash whites at a temperature of 60°C. If the laundry is not very soiled this will be enough and it is energy saving. If you want to wash whites without temperature, you must choose the program 2. Coloured fabrics are advised to be washed at 40°C although they would stand 60°C. When washing together dark and light colours the temperature should not exceed 40°C. Synthetic white and light coloured fabrics can be washed at 60°C, but here also 40° will do if they are not very soiled. Dark synthetics, delicate fabrics and wool must be washed at a temperature lower than 40°C. If one of the labels is marked 30°C, select 30°C for the whole cycle.
