Precautions
DO NOT move this unit during playback.
During playback, the disc is rotating at high speed. Do not try
to lift or move this unit as the disc may be damaged.
When moving this unit
You must remove the disc and close the disc tray when mov-
ing this unit. Then, press the OPERATION switch, and after
confirming that the power of the unit is off, unplug the power
cable from the AC outlet. If the unit is moved with a disc re-
maining inside, this can cause a malfunction.
Installation place
Install this unit in a location where good ventilation and heat
radiation are assured.
Especially, installation of this unit where direct sunlight is
present, where the temperature rises excessively high such
as close to a heater, or where it is humid or dusty may cause
a malfunction even if heat is efficiently released.
Therefore, do not install this unit in such places.
Note:
For heat dispersal, do not install this equipment in a con¬fined
space such as a book shelf or similar unit.
Do not put articles.
Do not put articles on this unit.
To avoid heat emission
Do not place this unit on such device as an amplifier that may
emit heat. If the unit is installed on a rack, install the unit below
the rack where the amplifier is installed so as to avoid heat
emission from the amplifier and other audio devices.
Turn off this unit when it is not used.
Depending on the condition of radio waves emitted during
television broadcasting, interference fringes may appear on
the television monitor, but that is not a malfunction. In such a
case, turn off the unit. There may also be a case where noises
are heard on the radio due to radio wave interference.
Notice when this unit is installed in a rack with glass doors
While the glass doors are closed, do not open the disc tray
by pressing the open/close ( ) switch of the remote control.
Disc tray performance will be blocked, and that may result in
a malfunction.
* Note

Wall
• Install the unit in a stable place such as in an audio rack.
• Do not install this unit near a television or color monitor.
Keep this unit away from such devices as cassette decks
that are subject to magnetism.
• Install this unit onto a level place when possible.
Avoid the following locations for installation
• Locations exposed to direct sunlight
• Places subject to humidity and with less ventilation
• Places where are extremely hot or cold
• Places subject to strong vibration
• Places subject to dust
• Places subject to oil, steam, and heat (such as kitchens)
Dew condensation
In winter, be careful when carrying this unit from a cold place
to a warm place or if the room temperature is suddenly raised
by a heater or the like where this unit is installed. The unit in-
terior (operating blocks and lens) will have dew condensation
on it. In such a condition, this unit cannot work normally and
playback is impossible. This depends on the state of dew
condensation, but you will be able to enjoy the music if the
unit is left untouched for one to two hours after it has been
turned on and the temperature of this unit is maintained at
room temperature until the condensation dries.
Even in summer, dew condensation can occur if this unit is
directly exposed to cool air from an air conditioner. In such a
case, the installation place should be changed.
Batteries
Warning: Batteries used for the remote control shall not be
exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

How to handle discs
• Do not use any deficient disc (with cracks, warp, etc.).
• Do not damage the signal surface of the disc or make it
dirty.
• Do not place paper or a sticker on the disc. Such awkward
handling can warp the disc and playback may become im-
possible. In many cases, rental discs carry labels and paste
may protrude from under the label. Before use, check that
the disc is free from protruding paste or the like.
• Do not play with two discs in a stack.
• Some of discs with printable surface, so-called “printable
CD-R”, easily stick to the clamper (that holds a CD during
playback). Please do not use such a disc. Otherwise, it may
become impossible to take out the disc or it may become a
cause of failure of the unit.
How to store discs
• Always put your discs in a case. Store them vertically where
high temperature, high humidity, and direct exposure to
sunlight are not prevalent. Places with extremely low tem-
perature should also be avoided.
• Read the caution notes carefully that are attached to discs.
Disc cleaning
• If a disc is dirty from fingerprints or dusty, the sound quality
may be lowered. Lightly wipe the disc with soft cloth, from
the inside to outer periphery. (Don’t wipe it along the cir-
cumference.)
• Do not use a volatile chemical such as benzine or thinner.
Record spray, anti-static agents, and other such materials
cannot be used either.
• Where the disc seems to be very dirty, dip soft cloth in wa-
ter, wring it well, and remove contaminants. Lastly, remove
the moisture with dry cloth.
Lens cleaning
If the lens is dusty, sound skips may take place. Do not use
any cleaning discs available on the market because they may
damage the lens.
Notice on handling optical digital cables
• Do not fold the cables. For storage, wind each cable to
make a coil whose diameter is approx.15 cm or larger.
• For connection, insert the cable connectors firmly into the
terminals of this unit and the other device.
• Use the cables whose each length is 3 m or less.
• When the cable connectors get dusty, wipe the dust away
with a dry soft cloth before inserting into the terminals.
Cleaning
• Usually, wipe the unit with a dry soft cloth. When the dirt
is hard to remove, dip soft cloth in detergent diluted 5 or 6
times with water, wring it well, and remove contaminants.
Then, remove the moisture with dry cloth.
• Do not use a solvent like alcohol, benzine, thinner, or pes-
ticide because such a substance can damage the exterior.
In addition, do not let this unit contact a rubber or plastic
form for a long time. That may damage the cabinet surface
of the unit.
• Before cleaning, unplug the power cable from the AC outlet.
Disc in a specific shape
This unit cannot accept discs in specific shapes (heart-
shaped, hexagonal, etc.) for playback. Never use such discs
as they can cause malfunctions.
