• Allow only an Akai Professional dealer or qualified professional engineer to repair or reas-
semble the CD3000XL. Apart from voiding the warranty, unauthorized engineers might touch
live internal parts and receive a serious electrical shock.
• Do not put, or allow anyone to put any object, especially metal objects, into the CD3000XL.
• Use only a household AC power supply. Never use a DC power supply.
• If water or any other liquid is spilled into or onto the CD3000XL, disconnect the power, and call
your dealer.
• Make sure that the unit is well-ventilated, and away from direct sunlight.
• To avoid damage to internal circuitry, as well as the external finish, keep the CD3000XL away
from sources of direct heat (stoves, radiators, etc.).
• Avoid using aerosol insecticides, etc. near the CD3000XL. They may damage the surface, and
may ignite.

damage the finish.

being impaired. Never attempt to modify the equipment in any way.
• Make sure that the CD3000XL is always well-supported when in use (either in a specially-
designed equipment rack, or a firm level surface).
• When installing the CD3000XL in a 19" rack system, always allow 1U of ventilated free space
above it to allow for cooling. Make sure that the back of the rack is unobstructed to allow a clear
airflow.
• In order to assure optimum performance of your CD3000XL, select the setup location carefully,
and make sure the equipment is used properly. Avoid setting up the CD3000XL in the following
locations:
1. In a humid or dusty environment
2. In a room with poor ventilation
3. On a surface which is not horizontal
4. Inside a vehicle such as a car, where it will be subject to vibration
