Do not use this unit in direct sunlight or leave the unit
in a closed automobile (or yacht, etc.) where it would
be exposed to high temperatures above 40°C.
1 Avoid using the unit in the following places:
• Where the temperature may become excessively
high or low; the recommended temperature range
is 5°C and 35°C.
• Where it could be subject to vibrations.
• Where it is excessively humid, such as in a
bathroom.
• Where it could be magnetized by a magnet or
speaker.
2 Pay attention to dust.
Be sure to close the disc door so that the lens is not
contaminated by dust. Do not touch the lens.
3 Condensation
Condensation may occur in the following cases, in
which the unit may not operate correctly:
• The unit is in a room where a heater has just been
switched on.
• The unit is in a place where there is smoke or high
humidity.
• The unit has just moved from a cold place to a
warm room.
In these cases, set the STANDBY/ON button to ON
and wait one or two hours before use.
4 Volume control
Compact discs produce very little noise compared
with analog records. If you adjust the volume by
listening to the noise as you do with analog records,
the speakers could be damaged by a sudden blast of
sound when playback starts. Therefore, turn down
the volume before starting and adjust it as required
while playing a CD.
5 Safety mechanism
The unit incorporates a safety interlock mechanism
which switches off the laser beam when the disc door
is opened.
6 Do not place magnetic objects such as
cassette tapes near the speakers.
Since the speakers contain magnets inside, do not
place cassette tapes or magnetic cards nearby as
recorded data could be erased.
7 Keep the unit away from the TV.
When the unit is used near a TV, the TV picture could
be distorted. If this happens, move the unit away from
the TV. If this does not correct the situation, avoid
using the unit when the TV is turned on.
8 Cleaning the cabinet
If the cabinet gets dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
Never use benzine or thinner as these could damage
the surface finish.
9 When listening with headphones
• Do not listen at high volumes as it could damage
your hearing.
• For safety, do not drive while listening with
headphones.
10 Carrying handle
Do not raise or lower the carrying handle with the
telescopic antenna extended, to avoid damaging the
antenna. Position the carrying handle so that it does
not interfere with operation.
