Congratulations on the purchase of your new 5

DISCCHANGERCD PLAYER!

Remove all items including packing materials

and wrappings from the pack We recommend
that you save the shipping carton and packing

materials in caseyou want to store, transport, or

Choose a Location

Follow the guidelines below when selecting a
place to put your player:

• Choose a level and solid surface. Don't place
it on a soft surface, such as carpeting or

foam rubber.

• Make sure the location is away from direct
sunlight, radiators, air ducts, and other

sources of heat.

Avoid locations that are subject to moisture,
mechanical vibration, shock, or excessive

dust.

As good ventilation is essential to protect the
CD player from internal heat build up, the

selected location should have adequate air
circulation.

Check for moisture

Moisture isyour CD player's worst enemy Do

take note of some of the following situations in

which condensation might form :

Immediately after a heater has been turned

on;

In a steamy or very humid room;
When the system is suddenly moved from a
cold environment to a warm, moist one; for

example, in moving the unit from a cool air
conditioned room to an outside porch on a

humid, summer day

If moisture forms inside this player, it may not
operate properly. To correct the problem, turn

off the power and wait about 30 minutes for
moisture to evaporate.

Connecting the CD Player
to an amplifier

Prior to or during connections, the CD player
should NOT be plugged to an AC power outlet.

1. Connect the cable's red plug to the CD
player's red (R) output jack. Connect the

white plug at the same end of the cable to
the white (L) output jack of the CD player.

2. Repeat step 1 above for connecting the other

end of the cable to an amplifier's (R)and (L)
output jack.

Note: If the amplifier does not have input

jacks labeled "CD", you can use input jacks

labeled "AUX" (Auxilliary).

3. Plug the power cord of the CD player into an

AC power outlet that accepts the polarized

plug (one blade wider than the other) or use

the AC outlet, if provided, at the back of
your amplifier.

4. If your amplifier is equipped with optical
input, connect it with an optical cable (not
supplied, available at general audio shops) to

your CD player to enjoy digital playback. By
connecting a CD recorder or MD deck to your

player with an optical cable (not supplied),
you can make a digital recording from your
CD player. Analog cable is no longer needed

once you have furnished the player with
optical cable settings.

IMPORTANT:The polarized plug is an improtant
safety feature. It will fit into the power outlet

only one way. If the plug won't go into the
outlet completely, reverse it and try inserting it

the other way. If it still won't fit, contact a

qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use
a different one. Do not attempt to bypass this

safety feature.
