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
specialised company. Please observe the local
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, exhausted batteries and old
equipment.
Care and safety information
(page 3 – P2)
Avoid high temperature, moisture, water
and dust
– Do not expose the system, batteries or discs
to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused
by heating equipment or direct sunlight). Always
keep the disc tray closed to avoid dust on the
lens.
– No objects filled with liquids, such as vases,
shall be placed on the apparatus.
– No naked flame sources, such as lighted
candles, should be placed on the apparatus.
– Don’t expose the system to dripping or
splashing.
Avoid condensation problem
– The lens may cloud over when the system is
suddenly moved from cold to warm
surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc.
Leave the system in the warm environment until
the moisture evaporates.
Do not block the vents
– In a cabinet, allows about 10cm (4 inches) of
free space all around the system for adequate
ventilation.
Care of discs
–To clean a CD, wipe it in a straight line from
the centre towards the edge using a soft, lint-free
cloth. A cleaning agent may damage the disc!
–Write only on the printed side of a CDR(W)
and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.
– Handle the disc by its edge, do not touch the
surface.
Care of the cabinet
– Use soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild
detergent solution. Do not use a solution
containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasives.
Finding a suitable location
– Place the system on a flat, hard, and stable
surface.
Built-in safety circuit
– Under extreme conditions, this system may
switch to the standby mode automatically. If this
happens, let the system cool down before
reusing it.
Power saving
– This system is designed to use less than 1W
of electricity when switched to the standby
mode. Disconnect the AC power cord from the
power outlet when not in use.
