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 traveling or leaving home for long
periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power
outlet.

• Sufficiently ventilate the place of installation

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 could get dirty,
in which case it will not be able to read the signals properly.

• 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 so, 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.

•

Note that the illustrations in these instructions may differ from the
actual unit for explanation purposes.

Cautions on Installation

NOTE

• Discs with special shapes (heart-shaped discs, octagonal discs, etc.)
cannot be played. Do not attempt to play them, as doing so can
damage the product.

• Some discs and some recording
formats may not be playable.

• Non-finalized discs cannot be
played.

b What is finalization?

Finalization is the process that
makes recorded CD-R/CD-RW discs playable on compatible
players.

Holding Discs

Do not touch the signal surface.

Loading Discs

• Set the disc with the labeled side facing up.

• Make sure the disc tray is fully open when inserting the disc.

• Place the discs flatly, 12 cm discs in the outer tray guide (Figure 1), 8

cm discs in the inner tray guide (Figure 2).

Outer tray guide Inner tray guide

12 cm disc

8 cm disc

• “00 Tr 00 : 00” is displayed if a disc that cannot be played is loaded.

• “00 Tr 00 : 00” is displayed if the disc is loaded upside-down or if no

disc is loaded.

NOTE

Do not push the disc tray in by hand when the power is turned off.
Doing so could damage the set.

Cautions on Loading Discs

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

the unit or scratch the discs.

• 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.

Cautions on Handling

• Do not get fingerprints, oil or dirt on discs.

• Take special care not to scratch discs when removing them from

their cases.

• Do not bend or heat discs.

• Do not enlarge the hole at the center.

• Do not write on the labeled (printed) surface with ball-point pens,

pencils, etc., or stick new labels on discs.

• Water droplets may form on discs if they are moved suddenly from a
cold place (outdoors for example) to a warm place, but do not try to
dry them off using a hairdryer, etc.

ENGLISH

Cleaning Discs

• If there are fingerprints or dirt on discs, 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.

Gently wipe the disc from the
inside towards the outside.

Do not wipe with a circular
motion.

NOTE

Do not use record spray, antistatic agents, or benzene, thinner or other
solvents.
