•Attachments—Use of attachments not recommended by the
player manufacturer may cause hazards.
•Using headphones:
•To avoid hearing damage caused by a sudden increase in
volume. Keep the volume at the lowest level before
playback, then adjust it to a comfortable level.
•Keep the volume at a moderate level to protect your ears.
•To avoid traffic accidents, never wear headphones when
driving a car or riding a bicycle.
•Placement
Avoid placing the player in the following places:
•Under direct sunlight or near a source of heat, such as a
heater or heater duct.
•In a closed automobile, on a dashboard or a parcel shelf.
Excess heat may deform the cabinet or cause malfunction.
•Where it is very dusty or sandy.
•In wet or humid places, such as a bathroom.
•Near sources of strong magnetism, such as a television or a
magnet.
•Where there is a lot of movement or vibration, such as on a
car dashboard or on an unstable shelf.

adapter and the player may be damaged.
Warning
To avoid electric shock, do not touch the AC adapter with wet

•Grounding or polarization—This player may be equipped
with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will only fit into the power
outlet one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the
plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat this safety feature of the
polarized plug.
•Power cord protection
—Power supply cords should be routed
so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at
plugs, receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
player.
•Lightning
—For added protection during a lightning storm or
when the player is left unattended and unused for long periods
of time, unplug it from the power outlet. This will prevent
damage to the player due to lightning and power-line surges.
•Overloading
—Do not overload power outlets, extension cords,
or integral convenience receptacles because this can resu lt in
a risk of fire or electric shock.
•Object and liquid entry
—Never push objects of any kind into
this player . That could cause a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on the player.
•Servicing
—Do not try to service this player yourself. Service
must be done by qualified service personnel only.
•Damages requiring service
—Unplug this player from the
power outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel
under the following conditions:
•When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
•If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
player.
•If the player has been exposed to rain or water.
•If the player does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions. The incorrect
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the player to its normal operation.
•If the player has been dropped or damaged in any way.
•When the player exhibits a distinct change in performance
which may indicate a need for service.
•Replacement parts—When replacement parts are required,
make sure that the service technician uses replacement parts
that are specified by the manufacturer or that have the same
characteristics as the or ig in al part. Unauthorized substi tuti ons
may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
