On Safety

As the laser beam used in this compact disc player could be harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

•Do not put any foreign objects in the disc compartment. If you do so, the laser beam interlock may be defeated allowing the laser to remain on when the lid is opened.

•Should any objects or liquids fall into the unit, disconnect the power supply and have the unit checked by qualified personnel before any further operation.

On Operation

Since the CD system offers a wide dynamic range, the peaks of the high level inputs are recorded with high fidelity, and the noise level is very low. Do not turn up the volume while listening to a part of the disc with no audio signals or very low level inputs. If you do so, the speakers may be damaged when the peak level of the sound is played. The lens of the laser should be kept clean. Do not touch the lens. If you do so, the lens may be damaged and the unit will not operate correctly.
