•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.
Cleaning the cabinet•Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as alcohol or benzine.
