Precautions and notes for placement and use
The
•Avoid exposing it to extremes of temperature and humidity and avoid mechanical shocks and vibration.
•Keep the unit away from strong magnetic fields (TV sets, computer monitors, large electric motors, etc.).
•The nominal temperature should be between 5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F).
•Relative humidity should be 30 to 90 percent.
•As the unit may become hot during operation, always leave sufficient space above the unit for ventilation. Do not install this unit in a confined space such as a book- case, and do not put anything on top of the unit.

•In addition, when transporting the unit, you should tape the disc tray closed, using an adhesive tape that will not spoil the finish of the unit.
If the unit (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the internal mechanism, making correct oper-
ation impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the player sit for one or two hours at the new room temperature before using.
Never use a stabilizer or printable discs
Using commercially available CD stabilizers or printable recordable discs with this player will damage the mecha- nism and cause it to malfunction.
