Cautions on handling

•Before turning the power switch on

Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are no problems with the connection cables.

•Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is set to the standby mode. When going on vacation or leaving home for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

•Proper ventilation

•If the unit is left in a room full of the smoke from cigarettes, etc.,

for long periods of time, the surface of the optical pickup may get dirty, preventing it from receiving the signals properly.

•Place in a stable, ﬂat location.

•About condensation

If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of the unit and the surroundings, condensation (dew) may form on the operating parts inside the unit, causing the unit not to operate properly. If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature before using the unit.

•Cautions on using mobile phones

Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If that occurs, move the mobile phone away from this unit when it is in use.

•Moving the unit

•Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power

outlet. Next, disconnect the connection cables to other system units before moving the unit.

•When carrying this unit with a platter installed, make sure that the

platter does not fall.

•When transporting this unit, remove the jog wheel and platter, and

package them separately for transportation.

•About care

•Wipe the cabinet and control panel clean with a soft cloth.

•Follow the instructions when using a chemical cleaner.

•Benzene, paint thinner or other organic solvents as well as

insecticide may cause material changes and discoloration if brought into contact with the unit, and should therefore not be used.

Part names and functions Preparations Connection MIDI Control

Playback

Do not touch the signal surface.

Loading discs

•Only load one disc at a time. Loading two or more discs can damage the unit or scratch the discs.

•When the disc is drawn into the unit, be careful not to trap your ﬁngers.

•Do not insert anything other than discs into the disc loading slot.

•Do not use cracked or warped discs or discs that have been repaired

with adhesive, etc.

•Do not use discs on which the sticky part of cellophane tape or labels is exposed or on which there are traces of where labels have been removed. Such discs can get caught inside the player and damage it.

•If the label side of the disc is dirty, wipe it clean before use. If the disc loading/ejection roller becomes dirty, discs may not load or eject correctly.

Cleaning discs

•If there are ﬁngerprints or dirt on a disc, wipe them off before using the disc. Fingerprints and dirt can impair sound quality and cause interruptions in playback.

•Use a commercially available disc cleaning set or a soft cloth to clean discs.
