Before Use

Read this before operation

<

As the unit may become warm during operation, always leave
sufficient space around the unit for ventilation. 

<

The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage as
printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt regarding this
matter, consult an electrician. 

<

Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also
avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat,
cold or moisture.

<

Do not place the unit on any high heat-producing units like
your amplifier/receiver.

<

Do not open the cabinet as this might result in damage to the
circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into
the set, contact your dealer or service agency.

<

When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always
pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.

<

To keep the laser pickup clean, do not touch it, and do not
forget to close the flap lid when not using the CD player.

<

Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as this
might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

<

Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT DURING CD PLAYBACK

During playback, the disc rotates at high speed. Do NOT lift or
move the unit during playback. Doing so may damage the disc.

WHEN MOVING THIS UNIT

When changing places of installation or packing the unit for
moving, be sure to remove the disc. Then, press the power
switch to turn the power off, and disconnect the power cord.
Moving this unit with the disc loaded may result in damage to
this unit.

Beware of condensation

When the unit (or a disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place,
or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger
of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the
internal mechanism, making correct operation impossible. To
prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the unit for one or two
hours with the power turned on. The unit will stabilize at the
temperature of its surroundings.

Maintenance

If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or use
diluted neutral cleaning liquid. Be sure to remove any fluid
completely. Do not use thinner, benzine or alcohol as they may
damage the surface of the unit.
