 Important

 

Incorrect use of batteries can result in hazards 
such as leakage and bursting. Please observe 
the following:

• Don’t mix new and old batteries together.

• Don’t use different kinds of battery

each battery match the indications in the 
battery compartment.

• Remove batteries from equipment that 

isn’t going to be used for a month or more.

Hints on installation

 

We want you to enjoy using this product for 
years to come, so please use the following 
guidelines when choosing a suitable location:

 

Do...

 

• Use in a well-ventilated room.

• Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as 

a table, shelf or stereo rack.

 

Don’t...

 

• Use in a place exposed to high 

temperatures or humidity, including near 
radiators and other heat-generating 
appliances.

• Place on a window sill or a place where the 

player will be exposed to direct sunlight.

• Use in an excessively dusty or damp 

environment.

• Place directly on top of an amplifier, or 

other component in your stereo system 
that becomes hot in use.

• Use near a television or monitor as you may 

experience interference—especially if the 
television uses an indoor antenna.

• Use in a kitchen or other room where the 

player may be exposed to smoke or steam.

• Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with 

cloth—this may prevent proper cooling of 
the unit.

• Place on an unstable surface, or one that is 

not large enough to support all four of the 
unit’s feet.
