HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Do not use this unit in direct sunlight where it would be exposed to high temperatures above 40°C (104°F).
1. Avoid installing in the following places
● Where it could be subject to vibrations.
● Where it is excessively humid, such as in a bathroom.
● Where it could be magnetized by a magnet or speaker.
2. Pay attention to dust
Be sure to close the CD holder or CD tray so that dust does not
collect on the lens.
3. Condensation
In the following cases, condensation may occur in the unit, in which
case the unit may not operate correctly.
● In a room where a heater has just been switched on.
● In a place where there is smoke or high humidity.
● When the unit is moved directly from a cold to a warm room.
In these cases, set the button to STANDBY and wait 1 or 2
hours before use.
4. Volume setting
CDs produce very little noise compared with analog sources. If the
volume level is adjusted for these sources, the speakers may be
damaged by the sudden increase of output level. Therefore, lower
the volume before operation and adjust it as required during play.
5. Safety mechanism
This unit incorporates a safety interlock mechanism which switches
the laser beam on and off, so that when the CD holder or CD tray is
open, the laser beam stops automatically.
6. Do not place cassette tapes, etc. near the speakers
Since there are magnets in the speakers, do not place tapes or magnetic cards on them as recorded data could be erased.
7. Keep this unit away from your TV
When this unit is used near a TV, the TV picture could be distorted.
If this happens, move this unit away from the TV. If this does not
correct the situation, avoid using this unit when the TV is turned on.
8. Cleaning the cabinet
If the cabinet gets dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Never use
benzine or thinner as these could damage the surface finish.
9. When listening with headphones
● Do not listen at high volumes as this could damage your hearing.
● For safety, do not drive while listening to this unit.
