Precautions

On safety

As the laser beam used in the CD player section is harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

Should any solid object or liquid fall into the player, unplug the player, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding or spring- wound watches away from the player to prevent possible damage from the magnet.

On operation

• If the player is brought directly from

a cold to a warm location, or is placed

in a very damp room, moisture may

Choosing the power sources

On power sources

For AC operation, check that the player’s operating voltage is identical with your local power supply (See “Specifications”) and use the supplied AC power cord; do not use any other type. The voltage selector is located at the bottom of the player (only for the models equipped with the VOLTAGE SELECTOR at the bottom).

The player is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.

For battery operation, use six size D (R20) batteries.

When the batteries are not to be used, remove them to avoid damage that can be caused by battery leakage or corrosion.

The nameplate indicating operating voltage, power consumption, etc. is located at the bottom.

On placement

Do not leave the player in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock.

Do not place the player on an inclined or unstable place.

Do not place anything within 10 mm of the side of the cabinet. The ventilation holes must be unobstructed for the player to operate properly and prolong the life of its components.

If the player is left in a car parked in the sun, be sure to choose a location in the car where the player will not be subjected to the direct rays of the sun.

Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.

Do not stick paper or sticker on the CD, nor scratch the surface of the CD.

After playing, store the CD in its case.

If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints on the CD, it may cause tracking error
