Read these operating instructions carefully before using the unit. Follow the safety instructions on
the unit and the applicable safety instructions listed below. Keep these operating instructions handy
for future reference.
1) Read these instructions.
2) Keep these instructions.
3) Heed all warnings.
4) Follow all instructions.
5) Do not use this apparatus near water.
6) Clean only with dry cloth.
7) Do not block any ventilation openings.
Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
8) Do not install near any heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
Getting Started
apparatus (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.
9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized or grounding-type plug. A
polarized plug has two blades with one
wider than the other. A grounding-type plug
has two blades and a third grounding prong.
The wide blade or the third prong are
provided for your safety. If the provided plug
does not fit into your outlet, consult an
electrician for replacement of the obsolete
outlet.
Do not rest the unit on your lap for a long time while using it. The unit can become hot
and cause burns.
To prevent damage
Avoid the following;
≥Spraying flammable insecticides near the unit.
≥Pressing the LCD.
≥Touching the lens and other parts of the laser pickup.
Do not use the unit in the following places;
≥Where the temperature is below 5 oC (41 oF) or above 35 oC (95 oF). (Operating the unit
beyond this range can cause the protection circuitry to function and render the unit
inoperable.)
≥Sandy places such as beaches.
≥On top of cushions, sofas, or hot equipment such as amplifiers.
RQT6912

10) Protect the power cord from being walked
on or pinched particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the apparatus.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specified
by the manufacturer.
12) Use only with the cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or
table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with
the apparatus. When a cart
is used, use caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury
from tip-over.
13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning
storms or when unused for long periods of
time.
14) Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as power-supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the
apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate normally, or has
been dropped.
Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against
continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear
outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
≥Start your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
≥
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
≥Leave it there.

there are a lot of sessions it takes more time
for play to start. Keep the number of sessions
to a minimum to avoid this.
Playing HighMAT discs
HighMAT (High performance Media Access
Technology) is a new standard for storing audio,
image, and video data files on CD media. When
you create a HighMAT CD using compliant PC
software, you can make playlist settings and
also record text information such as titles and
artist names. File searching is made easy using
CDs recorded in HighMAT through use of a
versatile navigation system. CDs recorded in
HighMAT can also be played on your PC.
This unit is compatible with HighMAT discs
containing WMA, MP3, or JPEG data. There are
some differences from other WMA/MP3/JPEG
discs.
