Mises en garde, précautions et
indications diverses

The lightning flash with arrowhead
symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is
intended to alert the user to the presence
of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within
the product’s enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.

Le symbole de l’éclair à l’intérieur d’un
triangle équilatéral est destiné à alerter
l’utilisateur sur la présence d’une “tension
dangereuse” non isolée dans le boîtier du
produit. Cette tension est suffisante pour
provoquer l’électrocution de personnes.

Le point d’exclamation à l’intérieur d’un
triangle équilatéral est destiné à alerter
l’utilisateur sur la présence d’opérations
d’entretien importantes au sujet desquelles
des renseignements se trouvent dans le
manuel d’instructions.

For U.S.A.
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly

approved by party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Note: This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and

receiver.

– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a

circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.

– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV

technician for help.

Pour les Etats-Unis
Attention : Les changements ou les modifications

qui ne sont pas explicitement approuvés par la partie
responsable de l’observance pourraient mettre fin au
droit de l’utilisateur d’utiliser le matériel.

R

emarque : Cet appareil a été testé et il s’est avéré

conforme aux limites applicables à un appareil
numérique de classe B, en vertu de la Partie 15
des Règles de la FCC. Ces limites sont conçues de
manière à assurer une protection raisonnable contre
les interférences nuisibles dans une installation
résidentielle. Cet appareil produit, utilise et peut émettre
une énergie de haute fréquence et, s’il n’est pas installé
et utilisé en conformité avec les instructions, il peut
causer des interférences nuisibles aux communications
radio. Il n’y a, toutefois, aucune garantie que des
interférences ne se produiront pas dans une installation
particulière. Si cet appareil cause effectivement des
interférences nuisibles à la réception de la radio ou de
la télévision, ce qu’on peut établir en mettant l’appareil
en marche et à l’arrêt, nous encourageons l’utilisateur à
tenter de corriger l’interférence par une ou plusieurs des
mesures suivantes :
– réorienter ou déplacer l’antenne de réception ;
– accroître la séparation entre l’appareil et le récepteur ;
– brancher l’appareil dans une prise ou un circuit autre

que celui auquel le récepteur est branché ;

– consulter un vendeur ou un technicien radio/TV

expérimenté pour obtenir de l’aide.

Playable discs

You can play back CDs with one of the marks below on the surface.

• You can also play back files in audio CD format on a finalized
CD-R or CD-RW.
– The reflection factor of CD-RW is lower than that of other

CDs, possibly causing CD-RW to take a longer time to read.
