1- Introduction

Rack-mounting the unit

If you are mounting the unit in a rack, leave 1U of space above it and 4 inch (10cm) or more of space at the rear.

Use the rack-mounting kit to mount the unit in a stan- dard 19-inch equipment rack, as shown in this section. Remove the feet of the unit before mounting.

Some notes, precautions and environmental considerations

The CC-222MKIII may be used in most areas, but to maintain top performance, and prolong operating life, observe the following notes, precautions and environ- mental conditions:

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 degrees non- condensing.

Make sure that the unit is mounted in a level position for correct operation.

The voltage selector on the rear panel is only avail- able on units for the North American market. Please set this to match your local supply. If you are in any doubt in this matter, consult an electrician.

NOTE

When transporting the unit, always use the origi- nal packing materials. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you save all the packing materials that came with the CC-222MKIII, in case you need to transport it in the future.

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 or similar product, and do not put any material goods on the unit.

Avoid installing this unit on top of any heat-generat- ing electrical device such as a power amplifier.

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.

Beware of condensation

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 operation impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the player for one or two hours with the power turned on, then turn the power off and on again.

Never use a stabilizer or printable discs

Using commercially available CD stabilizers or print- able recordable discs with this player will damage the mechanism and cause it to malfunction.

NOTE

Never use a disc that has had a stabilizer mounted to it. The residual adhesive may cause the disc to stick to the turntable of the CC-222MKIII. If it sticks to the turntable, you will need a technician to get it out.
