General Information

IMPORTANT: PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VOLTAGE SELECTOR LOCATED AT THE REAR OF THIS SYSTEM IS PRESET AT 220V FROM THE FACTORY. FOR COUNTRIES THAT OPERATE AT 110-127V, PLEASE ADJUST TO 110-127V BEFORE YOU SWITCH ON THE SYSTEM.

¶ 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.

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.
