INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
The CD player uses a microcomputer for controlling internal electronic circuits.
In the event that the player is used while a near-by tuner or TV is turned on,
although unlikely, interference could occur either in the sound from the tuner
or the picture of the TV. To avoid this, please take the following precautions.
• Keep the CD player as far away from the tuner or TV set as possible.
• Keep the power cable and connecting cable of the CD player separate from
the antenna wires of the tuner and TV.
• Interference is particular likely to occur when an indoor antenna or a 300
Ω
/ohms feeder cable is used. Thus, use of an outdoor antenna and 75
Ω
/ohms coaxial cable is strongly recommended.

• Depending on the frequency of use, the dry batteries should be replaced
approximately once per year.
• If the remote control unit fails to control the CD Player, even before a year
has passed, replace the dry batteries with new ones.
• Be sure to follow polarity indications inside the case of the remote control
unit, inserting the + end and – end of each battery in the directions
indicated.

the dry batteries.
• If fluid leaks from the batteries, be sure to wipe up all battery fluid inside the
battery case and replace the batteries with new ones.

• Aim the remote control unit toward the light receptor in the front of the CD
Player, as shown in the drawing below.
• The remote control unit can be used up to a distance of 8 meters in a
