CONNECTING TO AN EXTERNAL UNIT
To PHONES/LINE OUT jack
→
K
Use a commercially available connection cord which has a ø3.5 mm stereo mini-
plug at one end and two phono plugs at the other end.
Connect the stereo mini-plug to the PHONES/LINE OUT jack of the unit and
connect the phono plugs to the analog input terminals of the external unit, such
as the amplifier or the equipment with a built-in amplifier. The CD sound can be
heard through the connected audio system.
Note
• Turn off the power of both units before connection.
• DO NOT connect to the PHONO inputs of an amplifier (with a built-in phonoequalizer-
amplifier).
• Adjust the volume and DSL on this unit.
MAINTENANCE
To clean the pickup lens
If the lens becomes dirty, the player will skip or not play. If this occurs, clean the
lens in the following manner.
• To remove dust or dry particles, first use a camera lens blower/brush to blow a
few times to loosen particles, then gently brush the lens clean. Finish by blowing
the lens again.
• To remove fingerprints, use a cotton swab dipped in lens cleaning solution.
Wipe gently from the center to the edge. Lens cleaning solution is commercially
available.
Note
Take care not to get too much solution on the swab, which could flow into the unit and
cause damage.
Pressing too strongly with the swab could scratch or break the lens.
To clean the discs
Before playing, wipe the disc from the center out with a cleaning cloth. After
playing, store the disc in its case.
