Note

You can load or replace discs on the trays when the disc table is opening, however, never load a disc on the tray hidden inside the unit. In doing so, the disc and the unit may be damaged, because the tray already has a disc, which is being played back.

•Playing back some discs at high volume can cause mistracking. In this case, listen at lower volume.

•Do not pull open the disc table forcibly with your hands.•Do not push the disc table while it is moving.

•If the power fails while the table is open, wait until the power supply returns or gently push the table manually to close it.

•The temperature range for playing back discs is recommended to be 5°C (41°F) – 35°C (95°F).
