WARNING
GB
All ICs and many other semi-conductors are
susceptible to electrostatic discharges (ESD).
Careless handling during repair can reduce life
drastically.
When repairing, make sure that you are
connected with the same potential as the mass
of the set via a wrist wrap with resistance.
Keep components and tools also at this
potential.
F
ATTENTION
Tous les IC et beaucoup d’autres
semi-conducteurs sont sensibles aux
décharges statiques (ESD).
Leur longévité pourrait être considérablement
écourtée par le fait qu’aucune précaution n’est
prise à leur manipulation.
Lors de réparations, s’assurer de bien être relié
au même potentiel que la masse de l’appareil et
enfiler le bracelet serti d’une résistance de
sécurité.
Veiller à ce que les composants ainsi que les
outils que l’on utilise soient également à ce
potentiel.

ESD
D
WARNUNG
Alle ICs und viele andere Halbleiter sind
empfindlich gegenüber elektrostatischen
Entladungen (ESD).
Unsorgfältige Behandlung im Reparaturfall kan
die Lebensdauer drastisch reduzieren.
Veranlassen Sie, dass Sie im Reparaturfall über
ein Pulsarmband mit Widerstand verbunden
sind mit dem gleichen Potential wie die Masse
des Gerätes.
Bauteile und Hilfsmittel auch auf dieses gleiche
Potential halten.
WAARSCHUWING
NL
Alle IC’s en vele andere halfgeleiders zijn
gevoelig voor electrostatische ontladingen
(ESD).
Onzorgvuldig behandelen tijdens reparatie kan
de levensduur drastisch doen verminderen.
Zorg ervoor dat u tijdens reparatie via een
polsband met weerstand verbonden bent met
hetzelfde potentiaal als de massa van het
apparaat.
Houd componenten en hulpmiddelen ook op
ditzelfde potentiaal.
I
AVVERTIMENTO
Tutti IC e parecchi semi-conduttori sono
sensibili alle scariche statiche (ESD).
La loro longevità potrebbe essere fortemente
ridatta in caso di non osservazione della più
grande cauzione alla loro manipolazione.
Durante le riparazioni occorre quindi essere
collegato allo stesso potenziale che quello della
massa dell’apparecchio tramite un braccialetto
a resistenza.
Assicurarsi che i componenti e anche gli utensili
con quali si lavora siano anche a questo
potenziale.
GB
Safety regulations require that the set be restored to its original
condition and that parts which are identical with those specified,
be used.
NL
Veiligheidsbepalingen vereisen, dat het apparaat bij reparatie in
zijn oorspronkelijke toestand wordt teruggebracht en dat onderdelen,
identiek aan de gespecificeerde, worden toegepast.
F
Les normes de sécurité exigent que l’appareil soit remis à l’état
d’origine et que soient utiliséés les piéces de rechange identiques
à celles spécifiées.
D
Bei jeder Reparatur sind die geltenden Sicherheitsvorschriften zu
beachten. Der Original zustand des Geräts darf nicht verändert werden;
für Reparaturen sind Original-Ersatzteile zu verwenden.
“Pour votre sécurité, ces documents
doivent être utilisés par des spécialistes agréés, seuls habilités à réparer
votre appareil en panne”.

LASER PRODUCT
GB
Invisible laser radiation when open.
Avoid direct exposure to beam.
Osynlig laserstrålning när apparaten är öppnad och spärren
är urkopplad. Betrakta ej strålen.
Warning !

Varning !
3122 110 03420
I
Le norme di sicurezza esigono che l’apparecchio venga rimesso
nelle condizioni originali e che siano utilizzati i pezzi di ricambio
identici a quelli specificati.
"After servicing and before returning set to customer perform a
leakage current measurement test from all exposed metal parts to
earth ground to assure no shock hazard exist. The leakage current
must not exceed 0.5mA."
Varoitus !
SF
Avatussa laitteessa ja suojalukituksen ohitettaessa olet alttiina
näkymättömälle laserisäteilylle. Älä katso säteeseen!
DK Advarse !
Usynlig laserstråling ved åbning når sikkerhedsafbrydere er
ude af funktion. Undgå udsaettelse for stråling.

General Information
¶ The type plate (which contains the serial
number) is located at the rear of the
player.
¶ Recording is permissible if copyright or
other rights of third parties are not
infringed.
¶ This product complies with the radio
interference requirements of the European
Community.
Environmental Information
All unnecessary packaging has been omitted. We
have tried to make the packaging easy to
separate into three materials: cardboard (box),
polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene
(bags, protective foam sheet).
Your system consists of materials which can be
recycled and reused if disassembled by a
specialized company. Please observe the local
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, exhausted batteries and old
equipment.
Supplied Accessories
– Remote control
– AM loop antenna
– FM wire antenna
– AC power cord
Safety Information
¶ Before operating the player, check that the
operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or
the voltage indication beside the voltage
selector) of your player is identical with the
voltage of your local power supply. If not, please
consult your dealer. The typeplate is located at
the rear of your player.
¶ When the player is switched on, do not move it
around.
¶ Place the player on a solid base (e.g. a cabinet).
¶ Place the player in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in
your player. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit
and 5 cm (2 inches) from the each side.
¶ Do not expose the player to excessive moisture,
rain, sand or heat sources.
¶ Under no circumstances should you repair the
player yourself, as this will invalidate the
warranty!
¶ If the player is brought directly from a cold to a
warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,
moisture may condense on the lens of the disc
unit inside the player. Should this occur, the CD
player will not operate normally. Leave the
power on for about one hour with no disc in the
player until normal playback is possible.
¶ Electrostatic discharge may cause unexpected
problems. See whether these problems
disappear if you unplug the AC power cord and
plug it in again after a few seconds.
¶ To disconnect the player from the power
supply completely, remove the AC power
plug from the wall socket.
