Precautions
1. Warranty Claim
You can find the serial number on the rear panel
of this unit. In case of warranty claim, please report this number.
2. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST
TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
The voltage of the available power supply differs
according to country or region. Be sure that the
power supply voltage of the area where this unit
will be used meets the required voltage (e.g., AC
230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz) written on the
rear panel.
Turning off the standby button does not shut off
the power completely. So the power cord should
be removed from the AC outlet when the unit is
not used for a prolonged time.
3. Do not touch this unit with wet hands
Do not handle this unit or power cord when your
hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take this unit to an authorized
service center for inspection.
4. Location of this unit
Place this unit in a well-ventilated location.
Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation
on all sides of this unit especially when it is placed
in an audio rack. If ventilation is blocked, this unit
may overheat and malfunction.
Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heating units as this unit’s internal temperature may
rise and shorten the life of the pickup.
Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly
affected by vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit on or above one of
the speakers.
Be sure this unit is placed in a horizontal position.
Never place it on its side or on a slanted surface as
it may malfunction.
Do not place near tuners or TV sets.
If placed next to a TV or tuner, it may cause reception interference resulting in some noise in the TV
or tuner output.
5. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and
rear panels and the cabinet with a soft cloth. For
heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry,
and wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth.
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or
other chemical solvents or cloths since these could
damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.
6. Points to remember
If this unit is brought from a cold environment to
a warm one or is in a cold room that is quickly
heated, condensation may form on the pickup,
preventing proper operation. In this case, remove
the disc and leave the power ON for about one
hour to remove the condensation.
When transporting this unit, be careful not to
bump it.

Each time you press the DISC MODE button, the
disc mode will change in the following
sequence:
(The current disc mode is shown by the disc
mode indicators.)
TR-1 mode (hit-parade function): When
loaded with CD-singles, the CD Changer plays
only the first tracks of discs. The unit
automatically stops when the first tracks of all
discs have been played back. This mode is useful
when you play only the first tracks of one CDsingle after another.
1DISC mode: The CD Changer plays only the
currently selected disc. When finished, the unit
stops without playing the next CD.
Normal play (No indication made): When
finished playing the disc’s final track, the CD
Changer immediately starts playing the next
disc’s first track. The unit automatically stops
when all discs have been played back.
16
Note:
In the TR-1 mode, the CD Changer determines
whether it is a CD-single by the total playing
time, not the size of the disc. Therefore, even if
a 12-cm disc is loaded, the unit will recognize it
as a CD-single if it includes 4 tracks or less and
its total playing time is less than 27 minutes, and
play back only the disc’s first track.
