Precautions
On safety
• Should any solid object or liquid fall
into the cabinet, unplug the deck and
have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any
further.
• The use of optical instruments with
this product will increase eye hazard.
On power sources
• Before operating the deck, check that
the operating voltage of the deck is
identical with your local power
supply. The operating voltage is
indicated on the nameplate at the rear
of the deck.
• The unit is not disconnected from the
AC power source (mains) as long as it
is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the unit itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the deck
for a long time, be sure to disconnect
the deck from the wall outlet. To
disconnect the AC power cord, grasp
the plug itself; never pull the cord.
• AC power cord must be changed only
at the qualified service shop.
On condensation in the deck
If the deck is brought directly from a
cold to a warm location, or is placed in a
very damp room, moisture may
condense on the lenses inside the deck.
Should this occur, the deck may not
operate properly. In this case, remove
the CD or MD and leave the deck
turned on for about an hour until the
moisture evaporates.
On handling CDs
• To keep the CD clean, handle the CD
by its edge. Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or tape onto the
CD.
• Do not expose the CD to direct
sunlight or heat sources such as hot
air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked
in direct sunlight as there can be a
considerable rise in temperature
inside the car.
