installed in close proximity to such equipment may cause noise or degradation of the picture.

- Noise may be noticeable when an indoor antenna is used. In such cases, make use of an outdoor antenna
or turn off power to the compact disc player.

- When the unit is used in a loud-sound environment, e.g., near a speaker, sound skip may occur. Install the
unit away from the speaker or reduce the listening volume.

- Place this unit on a level surface and a stable platform.

- Be sure the player, including its audio and power supply cords, does not touch vibrating materials. Any
cause of vibration other than the insulators may cause the disc to skip. Take special care when using the
player while it is installed in a carrying case.

About discs created on computers

Depending on the application settings and the computer’s environmental settings, it may not be possible to play
certain discs. Record the disc in a format supported on this unit. For details, contact your application’s retailer.
If the recording quality is poor due to the disc’s properties, scratches or dirt on the disc or dirt on the recording lens,
it may not be possible to play the disc.

Creating backup discs

When CD-R/-RW discs are paused or left in the pause mode at cue points for long periods
of time, it may become difficult to play the disc at that point, due to the properties of the disc.
Also, when a specific point is looped repeatedly an extremely large number of times, it may become difficult to play
that point. When playing valuable discs, we recommend making backup discs.
