WARNING:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR PRODUCT DAMAGE, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPARATUS TO RAIN, MOISTURE, DRIPPING OR SPLASHING AND THAT NO OBJECTS FILLED WITH LIQUIDS, SUCH AS VASES, SHALL BE PLACED ON THE APPARATUS.

CAUTION!

THIS PRODUCT UTILIZES A LASER. USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE. DO NOT OPEN COVERS AND DO NOT REPAIR YOURSELF. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

CAUTION!

DO NOT INSTALL OR PLACE THIS UNIT IN A BOOKCASE, BUILT-IN CABINET OR IN ANOTHER CONFINED SPACE. ENSURE THE UNIT IS WELL VENTILATED. TO PREVENT RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE HAZARD DUE TO OVERHEATING, ENSURE THAT CURTAINS AND ANY OTHER MATERIALS DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE VENTILATION VENTS.

THE FOLLOWING APPLIES ONLY IN THE U.S.A.

CAUTION:

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. Any unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment would void the user’s authority to operate this device. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

≥The HOLD function is on. Release HOLD. (➪page 5)

You haven’t inserted a disc or it isn’t inserted correctly.

≥ ≥You have inserted a disc this unit cannot play.

≥The disc lid is open. ≥The batteries are recharging. Recharging is complete when

this disappears.

≥The program already contains 20 tracks. ≥Reading MP3 files. ≥This indicates an error.

Caution

≥Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the earphones or any other parts that

directly contact your skin. Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic reactions.

SL-J910

≥ Do not use in the car when the unit is attached to the speaker stand.

∫Batteries

≥Do not peel off the covering on the batteries and do not use if the covering has been peeled

off.

≥Align the poles r and s correctly when inserting the batteries. ≥Do not mix different types of batteries or old and new batteries. ≥Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the unit for a long time. ≥Do not throw into a fire, short-circuit, disassemble, or subject to excessive heat. ≥Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries. ≥When carrying batteries in a pocket or bag, ensure no metal objects such as necklaces are

placed together with them. Contact with metal may cause short-circuiting which can cause a fire. For safety, carry the rechargeable batteries in the battery carrying case.

A nickel metal hydride battery that is recyclable powers the product you have purchased. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to recycle this battery.

∫CDs

≥Do not use irregularly shaped CDs. ≥Do not use non-specification discs. ≥Do not use CDs printed with label printers available on the market. ≥Do not use CDs with labels and stickers that are coming off or with adhesive exuding from

under labels and stickers.

∫Listening

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.

CAUTION:

Use only car adaptor, Model: SH-CDC9 manufactured by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.

Marking sign is located on bottom of the unit.

AC adaptor

This AC adaptor operates on AC between 100 V and 240 V. But ≥In the U.S.A. and Canada, the AC power supply cord must be connected to a 120 V AC

power supply only.

≥When connecting to an AC supply outside of the U.S.A. or Canada, use a plug adaptor to

suit the AC outlet configuration.

≥When connecting to a supply of greater than AC 125 V, ensure the cord you use is suited

to the voltage of the AC supply and the rated current of the AC adaptor.

≥Contact an electrical parts distributor for assistance in selecting a suitable AC plug

adaptor or AC cord set.
