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
