measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

For external model users: Please use the external shielded SCSI cables supplied with this
CD-ROM drive. Using other signal cables may exceed the limits of the Class B Part 15 of the
FCC Rules.

Any changes or modifications should be approved by the party responsible for compliance with
FCC Rules; otherwise, the user loses authority to operate the equipment.

 CAUTION 

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

The laser beam emitted from the optical pickup is invisible. Accordingly:

Do not open the optical pickup housing.
