SAFETY TIPS
SAFETY TIPS
CAUTIONS FOR SAFETY
Do not take the unit apart. The laser beam
used in the unit could harm your eyes.
Ê
Do not insert pins or other objects
inside the unit. This unit is equipped
with a safety device which
automatically turns the laser beam off
when the disc compartment is opened.
If a pin or other metal object should get
inside the unit, however, this safety
device may be deactivated.
Ë
Do not drop the unit or subject it to
strong shocks. Doing so could result in
damage.
Do not place the unit
in the following locations:
Ê
Locations where the temperature is
high. The cabinet may warp or the unit
may otherwise be damaged if it is
placed in direct sunlight, near heaters
(where the temperature is 140 F/60 C
or greater) or in cars with the windows
closed. (In the summer, the
temperature may get as high as
212 F/110 C or more.)
Ë
Use the unit within a temperature range
of 41 F/5 C to 95 F/35 C.
Ì
In humid or dusty locations.
Í
ln locations exposed to heavy vibrations.
Î
On unstable or tilted surfaces.
CONDENSATION
If cold water is poured into a glass, water
droplets form on the outside of the glass.
This is called condensation. Condensation
may occur on internal operating parts of
the laser pickup.
CONDENSATION OCCURS:
Ê
When the unit is brought from the
outdoors into a warm room, or if it is in
a cold room which is heated quickly.
Ë
In the summer, if the unit is moved
suddenly from an air-conditioned room
or car to a hot or humid location.
SHOULD CONDENSATION OCCUR:
The unit may not operate properly if
condensation occurs. Wait for 1 to 2
hours (to allow the internal parts to
adjust to the surrounding temperature)
before using the unit.
