Handling Precautions

Do not use this unit in direct sunlight or leave the unit in a closed automobile (or yacht, etc.) where it would be exposed to high temperatures above 40°C.

1Avoid using the unit in the following places:

•Where the temperature may become excessively high or low; the recommended temperature range is 5°C and 35°C.

•Where it could be subject to vibrations.

•Where it is excessively humid, such as in a bathroom.

•Where it could be magnetized by a magnet or speaker.

2Pay attention to dust.

Be sure to close the disc holder so that the lens is not contaminated by dust. Do not touch the lens.

3Condensation

Condensation may occur in the following cases, in which the unit may not operate correctly:

•The unit is in a room where a heater has just been switched on.

•The unit is in a place where there is smoke or high humidity.

•The unit has just moved from a cold place to a

warm room.

In these cases, set the (on/off) button to the on position and wait one or two hours before use.

4Volume control

Compact discs produce very little noise compared with analog records. If you adjust the volume by listening to the noise as you do with analog records, the speakers could be damaged by a sudden blast of sound when playback starts. Therefore, turn down the volume before starting and adjust it as required while playing a CD.

5Safety mechanism

The unit incorporates a safety interlock mechanism which switches off the laser beam when the disc holder is opened.

6Do not place magnetic objects such as cassette tapes near the speakers.

Since the speakers contain magnets inside, do not place cassette tapes or magnetic cards nearby as recorded data could be erased.

7Keep the unit away from the TV.

When the unit is used near a TV, the TV picture could be distorted. If this happens, move the unit away from the TV. If this does not correct the situation, avoid using the unit when the TV is turned on.

8Cleaning the cabinet

If the cabinet gets dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Never use benzine or thinner as these could damage the surface finish.

9When listening with headphones

•Do not listen at high volumes as it could damage your hearing.

•For safety, do not drive while listening with headphones.

10Carrying handle

Do not raise or lower the carrying handle with the telescopic antenna extended, to avoid damaging the antenna. Position the carrying handle so that it does not interfere with operation.
