Precautions

Ensure that the AC power supply in your house complies with the identification sticker located on the back of your player. Install
your player horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with enough space around it for ventilation (7.5~10cm). Make sure 
the ventilation slots are not covered. Do not stack anything on top of the amplifier. In order to disconnect the player completely
from the power supply, remove the mains plug from the wall outlet, especially when left unused for a long period of time.

Protect the player from moisture(i.e. vases) , and excess
heat(e.g.fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic
or electric fields (i.e.speakers...). Disconnect the power
cable from the AC supply if the player malfunctions. Your
player is not intended for industrial use.
Use of this product is for personal use only.
Condensation may occur if your player or disc have been
stored in cold temperatures.
If transporting the player during the winter, wait
approximately 2 hours until the unit has reached room
temperature before using.

During thunderstorms, disconnect AC main plug from
the wall outlet.
Voltage peaks due to lightning could damage the unit.

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat
sources.
This could lead to overheating and malfunction of 
the unit.

The battery used with this product contain chemicals

that are harmful to the environment. 

Do not dispose of batteries in the general household

trash.

Safety Warnings

This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage which
can cause electric shock is present inside this unit.

This symbol alerts you to important operating and
maintenance instructions accompanying the unit.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose this appliance to rain or moisture.

CAUTION:

TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE
BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.

Wiring the Main Power Supply Plug(UK Only)

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The main lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug
and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.
Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachable and a replacement is required, it must be of the same colour as the fuse
fitted in the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable
safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.
However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the plug to a main
socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.
Never attempt to insert bare wires directly into a main socket. A plug and fuse must be used at all times.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the main lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:–

BLUE = NEUTRAL          BROWN = LIVE

As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:–
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured
BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH THE 

LETTER E OR BY THE EARTH SYMBOL        ,  OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN AND YELLOW.
