Precautions upon Use

About the power supply

Connect this CD player to the specified power supply. Do not connect to other power supplies.

When connecting or disconnecting the power cable, hold it by its plug.

Daily care of the CD player

Do not wipe the CD player ’s body with chemical- impregnated cloth, or a cloth soaked with benzene, paint thinner or other organic solvent. Doing so might damage the surface of the CD player’s body. Wipe off stubborn dirt on the top cover or panels with a soft cloth moistened with a small amount of diluted neutral detergent.

About condensation

When the CD player (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold to a warm, heated room (e.g. in winter), or immediately after heating apparatus in the room where the CD player is installed is turned ON, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the CD player. This will not only prevent the CD player from operating normally but also may damage discs or precision components inside the CD player. If condensation forms, leave the CD player turned ON for one or two hours to acclimatize and allow water droplets to evaporate so that the CD player can operate normally. Before moving the CD player or when the CD player is not used, remove the disc.

Handling CDs (compact discs)

This CD player can play back CD-DA format CDs.

Both commercially available audio CDs (120 mm/80 mm) and normally recorded CD-R/CD-RW discs can also be used.

zTo take a disc out of its storage case, press down on the centre of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by its edges.

zFingerprints or dust on the recording surface should be carefully wiped off by wiping in a straight motion from the inside to the outside of the disc with a soft cloth. Dirt on discs causes the laser pickup to jump. So, keep discs in a clean state at all times and store them in their storage cases.

zNever use record sprays, antistatic sprays, benzene, paint thinner, or other organic solvents. Chemical products such as these may damage the surface of the disc.

zDo not expose discs to the direct sunlight or high temperature or humidity. Long exposure to high temperatures may cause them to warp or become deformed.

zDo not stick paper or write anything with a ballpoint pen on the label surface.

zDo not use discs from which cellophane tape or rental CD stickers have been peeled off, or discs with adhesive from stickers still sticking to the disc. Leaving discs such as these in the CD player may prevent the disc from being removed or cause a malfunction.
