6.Installing This Unit
•Install this unit in a
•Ensure that there’s adequate ventilation all around this unit, especially if it’s installed in an audio rack. If the ventilation is inadequate, the unit may overheat, leading to malfunction.
•Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heat sources, because its internal temperature may rise, shortening the life of the optical pickup.
•Avoid damp and dusty places, and places subject to vibrations from loudspeakers. Never put the unit on top of, or directly above, a loudspeaker.
•Install this unit horizontally. Never use it on its side or on a sloping surface, because it may cause a mal- function.
•If you install this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the sound quality may be affected. If this occurs, move this unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.
7.Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation may damage this unit. Read the following carefully:
When you take a glass containing a cold drink outside on a summer’s day, drops of water, called condensation, form on the outside of the glass. Similarly, moisture may condense on the lens of the optical pickup, one of the most important parts inside this unit.
•Moisture condensation can occur in the following sit- uations:
—The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm place.
—A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air con- ditioner is hitting the unit.
—In the summer, when this unit is moved from an air conditioned room to a hot and humid place.
—The unit is used in a humid place.
•Do not use this unit when there’s the possibility of moisture condensation occurring. Doing so may damage your discs and certain parts inside this unit.
If condensation does occur, remove all discs and leave this unit turned on for two to three hours. By this time, the unit will have warmed up and any condensation will have evaporated. To reduce the risk of condensation, keep this unit connected to a wall outlet.
For British models
Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord of this unit should be performed only by quali- fied service personnel.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appara- tus may not correspond with the coloured markings identi- fying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire that is coloured blue must be connected to the ter- minal that is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire that is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
IMPORTANT
A 3, 5 or 13 ampere fuse is fitted in this plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of 3, 5 or 13 amperes and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362. Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.
IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR HOME THEN THE FUSE SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DISPOSED OF SAFELY. THERE IS A DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY 13 AMPERE SOCKET.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
