We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
_iNG
F ALIW.,
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just Decibel
purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time Level
to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your 30
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries 40
Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most 50
out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the 60
sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or 70
distortion--and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive 80
hearing.
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 harm[u\ to _yourhearing. Guard against this by
setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE _jourhearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear itcomfortably and
clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide alifetime of
fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often
undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic
Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend
you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound
levels is included for your protection.
Examp_
Quiet library, soft whispers
Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic
Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office
Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine
Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock
at two feet.
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS
UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane

motor is still revolving. Since leaving the player inthis condition
can shorten the lifetime of the motor, do not leave the player
in the pause mode for long periods of time. Also, to prevent
the damage to the screen, do not use the unit for long periods
of time under conditions in which the screen display (monitor)
has been displayed characters (for example, power-ON mode,
CD PLAY, PAUSE). With LD disc, if playback is paused for
about 20 minutes, the player will automatically enter stop
mode.
STRIPE PATTERNS APPEARING ON A TV
PROGRAM
Stripe patterns may appear during a TV program if the player
unit is turned on, depending on the quality of reception of
the TV station. This is neither a malfunction of the television
nor the player. If stripes appear while watching the TV, or
when watching the TV for long periods of time, turn the
player off.

may be generated if the player is turned on. Turn off the
player when not in use. Also, if there is signal noise when
receiving radio stations with an indoor antenna, adjust the
position or direction of the antenna.
CONDENSATION
Moisture will form in the operating section of the player
if the player is brought from cool surroundings into a
warm room or if the temperature of the room rises
suddenly. When this happens, player's performance will
be impaired.
To prevent this, let the player stand in its new
surroundings for about an hour before switching it on,
or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.
