Warnings:

• The AC power plug is used as disconnect device and it

should remain readily operable during intended used.
In order to disconnect the apparatus from the mains
completely, the AC power plug should be disconnected
from the mains socket outlet completely.

• The mains plug of apparatus should not be obstructed OR

should be easily accessed during intended use.

• Minimum 10 cm (4 inches) distances around the apparatus

for sufficient ventilations.

• The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the

ventilation openings with items such as newspaper, table­cloths, curtains, etc.

• No naked flame sources such as lighted candles should be

placed on the apparatus.

On Safety

As the laser beam used in this compact disc player could
be harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the
casing. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

• Do not put any foreign objects in the disc compartment.

If you do so, the laser beam interlock may be defeated
allowing the laser to remain on when the lid is opened.

• Should any objects or liquids fall into the unit, disconnect

the power supply and have the unit checked by qualified
personnel before any further operation.

On Operation

Since the CD system offers a wide dynamic range, the peaks
of the high level inputs are recorded with high fidelity, and
the noise level is very low. Do not turn up the volume while
listening to a part of the disc with no audio signals or very
low level inputs. If you do so, the speakers may be damaged
when the peak level of the sound is played. The lens of the
laser should be kept clean. Do not touch the lens. If you do
so, the lens may be damaged and the unit will not operate
correctly.

On Use

Never use the unit where it would be subject to:

- Heat sources such as radiators or air ducts.

- Direct sunlight.

- Excessive dust.

- Moisture or rain.

- Mechanical vibration or shock .

- Uneven surface.

• Do not place any heavy objects on top of the unit.

• When the unit is used with an AC power plug, do not wrap

the unit in a clo th, blanket, etc. I f you do so, the temper ature
inside and outside the unit may rise considerably, resulting
in malfunctioning of the unit.

• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm

location, or is placed in a very damp room, the moisture
may condense o n the lens inside the uni t. Should this occur,
the unit will not operate. In this case, remove the disc and
leave the unit in a warm place for several hours until the
moisture evaporates.

• For the unit to operate at its best, it should not be subject to

temperatures below 41°F (5°C) or above 95°F (35°C).

ventilation. Do not place product in or on a bed, rug, in a
bookcas e or cabinet that may pre vent air flow throug h vent
openings.

• Do not place lighted candles, cigarettes, cigars, etc. on the

product.

• Connect power plug only to AC power source as marked on

the product.

• Care should be taken so that objects do not fall into the product.
