     likely to be walked on or pinched by items 

     placed upon or against them, paying par- 

     ticular attention to cords at plugs, conve- 

     nience receptacles, and the point where

       operate normally or exhibits a marked 

       change in performance.

       the enclosure damaged.

15.Servicing - The user should not attempt to 

     service the CD Player beyond that describ-

     ed in the operating instructions. All other
