Never use a stabilizer or printable discs

Using commercially available CD stabilizers or printable recordable discs with this player will damage the mech- anism and cause it to malfunction.

NOTE

Never use a disc that has had a stabilizer mounted to it. The residual adhesive may cause the disc to stick to the turntable of the CD-RW900. If it sticks to the turntable, you will need a technician to get it out.

Beware of condensation

If the unit (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the internal mechanism, making

correct operation impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the player for one or two hours with the power turned on, then turn the power off and on again.

Do not expose the light-receptive spot to the direct sunlight or intense lights of an illumination for extend- ed periods. Long exposure to the lights may result a failure of the unit functions.

When the remote control will not be used over one month, please remove the batteries to prevent the possibility of battery acid leakage which could dam- age the unit. Should leakage occur, remove and discard the batteries, and wipe the battery case thor- oughly with a cloth. Avoid getting the battery liquid on the skin. After cleaning, replace with new batter- ies.

The remote control functions by using an infrared light signal. When using the unit to control the CD- RW900, other devices that are turned on could be operated by its signal.

If the range of remote operation becomes smaller, or commands do not always function properly, the bat- teries have become weak and should be replaced. Always replace both batteries with new batteries of the same type.

Point the remote control to the remote sensor on the main unit. Do not obstruct the path between the re- mote control and the remote sensor.

Batteries

If batteries are used improperly, or if leakage or break- age occurs, the unit will not function. Please observe the cautions indicated on the batteries and their pack- aging to ensure proper usage.

Confirm + and − polarity and follow the indications when inserting new batteries into the remote control.

Do not use old and new batteries together.

Even if the battery is the same size, the voltage may differ. Do not use batteries of different specifications together.

Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are non- rechargeable.

Do not open or disassemble batteries, throw them into a fire or put them in water.

Inserting batteries

1.Open the lid.

2.Confirm +/- polarity, and insert two AAA batteries.

3.Close the lid.

Connections

The following should be noted when you connect the unit to other equipment.

It is possible to connect the unit’s DIGITAL COAXIAL IN, DIGITAL OPTICAL IN and ANALOG UNBAL- ANCED INs (L, R) to other equipment at the same time. However, the unit can receive signals from only one digital input at a time.

Currently selected input jack is shown on the display.

Audio signals output from the unit are output from the analog ANALOG OUT jacks, as well as from the DIGI- TAL COAXIAL OUT jack and DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT connector simultaneously (but not from the digital out- puts in stop mode).
