switches to avoid exposure when the CD door is open and 

the safety interlocks are defeated. Invisible laser radiation is 

present when the CD Player’s lid is open and the system’s 

interlock has failed or been defeated. It is very important 

that you avoid direct exposure to the laser beam at all times. 

Please do not attempt to defeat or bypass the safety switches.
