FOR SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION

I

- Theapparatus shall not beexposed todtipping or splashing.

- Donotdamage the mains lead.

- When not in use, disconnect the mains lead from the outlet. Grasp the plug, not the lead,
when disconnecting the unit.

Ifwater should enter the unit, electrical shock ora malfunction may result. Use in an area

where there is low humidity and little dust.

- Do not disassemble or alter the unit in any way.

Do not use the unit in areas where extremes in temperature occur (below 5°C or

exceeding 35”C), or where it may be exposed to direct sunlight.

- Because of the CD player’s extremely low noise and wide dynamic range, there is a
tendency to turn the volume on the amplifier higher than necessary. Doing so may
produce an excessively high output from the amplifier which can cause damage to your
speakers. Please be careful in this regard.

- Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause dew to form on the optical
pickup lens inside the unit. Under this condition the unit may be unable to operate
properly. If this should occur, remove the disc and allow the player to adjust to the
surrounding temperature.

Always place the compact disc in the CD
compartment with the label facing up. Com­pact discs can be played on only one side.
Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped
off the disc’s signal surface (opposite the label
side) with a soft cloth. Gently wipe in a straight
motion from the inside to the outside of the
disc.
Discs should be returned to their cases after
use to avoid serious scratches which could
cause the player to skip.
Do not expose a disc to direct sunlight, high
humidity, or high temperatures for extended
periods of time to prevent warping the disc.
Do not apply paper or write anything on either
side of the disc. Sharp writing instruments, or

the inks used in some felt-tip pens, may
damage the surfaces of the disc.
Do not use cleaners or antistatic stxavs on
discs, such as those used for phonograph
records.
