Safety Information

Before operating the system, check that the operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or the voltage indication beside the voltage selector) of your system is identical with the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer.The typeplate is located at the rear of your system.

When the system is switched on, do not move it around.

Place the system on a solid base (e.g. a cabinet).

Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in your system. Allow at least 10cm (4 inches) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit and 5cm (2 inches) from the each side.

The system incorporates a built-in safety feature that prevents overheating.

Do not expose the system to excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources.

Under no circumstances should you repair the system yourself, as this will invalidate the warranty!

If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens of the CD unit inside the system. Should this occur, the CD player will not operate normally. Leave the power on for about one hour with no disc in the system until normal playback is possible.

Electrostatic discharge may cause unexpected problems. See whether these problems disappear if you unplug the AC power cord and plug it in again after a few seconds.

To disconnect the system from the power supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.
