Installation guidelines

!Do not place this unit on objects radiating heat, such as an amplifier, or expose it to a spotlight for an extended period of time, as this may damage this unit.

!Install this unit away from a tuner or a TV. Otherwise, image distor- tion or noise may result. Also, image distortion or noise can easily occur if an indoor antenna is used. In such cases, use an outdoor antenna or turn off the power of this unit.

!When this unit is used in a loud-sound environment, e.g., near a speaker, sound skip may occur. Install this unit away from the speaker or reduce the listening volume.

!Place this unit on a level surface and a stable platform.

!Do not place heavy objects on top of this unit.

Be sure the player, including its audio and power supply cords, does not touch vibrating materials. Any cause of vibration other than the insulators may cause sound skip. Take special care when using the player while it is installed in a carrying case.

Cleaning the product

Under normal circumstances, wipe it with a dry cloth. For hard-to- remove stains, soak a soft cloth in a neutral detergent diluted with 5 to 6 times of water, wring it thoroughly, wipe off the stains, and wipe the surface with a dry cloth again. Do not use alcohol, thinner, benzene, or insecticide, as these may peel off the printed label or the coated film. Avoid leaving rubber or vinyl products in contact for an extended period of time, as this may also damage the surface of the cabinet. When using chemical-impregnated wipes, etc., read the cautions carefully.

Unplug the power plug from the AC outlet when cleaning this unit.

Cleaning the Jog Dial

To clean the jog dial, wipe with a polishing or a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, moisten a soft cloth with a weak solution of neutral detergent (diluted in 5 to 6 parts water), wring the cloth well, and wipe away the dirt. Use a dry cloth to wipe the surface dry. Applying alcohol, paint thinner, benzene, insecticides, or other stringent substances to the jog dial may cause the markings or finishing of the dial to peel or become discolored, and the use of any such substances should accordingly be avoided.
