On heat buildup

•Although the unit heats up during operation, this is not malfunction.

•Place the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the unit.

If you continuously use this unit at a large volume, the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom rises considerable. To avoid burning yourself, do no touch the cabinet.

On operation

•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 inside the CD player. Should this occur, the system will not operate properly. Remove the CD and leave the system turned on for about an hour until the moisture evaporates.

•When you move the system, take out any discs.

Notes on discs

•Discs recorded on CD-R/RW drives may not be played back because of scratches, dirt., recording condition or the drive's characteristics.

•CD-R/RW discs which are not finalized at the end of recording cannot be played back.

•Do not attach adhesive label, etc. to either side of a CD-R/ RW disc, as doing so may cause malfunction.

•Do not load an unrecorded CD-R/RW disc. The disc may be damaged.

•Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square, star) cannot be played on this unit. Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do not use such discs.

•DVD, SACD, CD-ROM, VCD, and CD with MP3 files cannot be played on this unit.
