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.
FCC WARNING : Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
CAUTION :
Use shielded connecting cables in order to meet FCC emission limits and also to prevent
interference to nearby radio and television reception.

to the surface of the disc.
Should not paste a large or thick
label to the outer back surface
(the label side) of the disc, or it
generates drive vibration due to
imbalance of the disc.
➃ Do not store the disc in a place where
the temperature is high.
➄ Do not use benzine, thinners and
cleaners, etc.
➅ Do not make the center hole larger.
➆ Do not bend the disc.
➇ Do not drop the disc, or subject it to
shock.

CHAPTER 4 GUIDE TO OPERATION
4.1 INSTALLATIONS
• Starting the drive.
➀ Turn on the power supply.
➁ Press the open button. The disc cover opens.
➂ Place the disc in the turn table inserting firmly the turn shaft to the disc center hole
with the disc’s label facing up.
➃ Press the disc cover to close.
CAUTION:
• Do not place any foreign objects in the drive. This could result in a malfunction.
• Do not manually force the disc cover to open.
• When the drive is not in use, keep the disc cover closed to protect against dust
and dirt.
• In case of emergency, eject the tray manually
If for some reason the tray will not eject automatically, press
the eject-bar (for example, insert a straightened paper clip
minimum straight length = 45 mm, Diameter = 1 ~ 1.5 mm)
into the emergency eject hole to manually open the disc
cover. (Before proceeding with this emergency step, make
