TASCAM CD-

Before Use
Environmental considerations
The CD-355 may be used in most areas, but to maintain top
performance, and prolong operating life, observe the following
environmental conditions:
<
The nominal temperature should be between 5°C and 35°C
(41°F and 95°F).
<
Relative humidity should be between 5% and 85% non-
condensing.
<
As the unit may become hot during operation, always leave
sufficient space above the unit for ventilation. Do not install
this unit in a confined space such as a bookcase, and do not
put anything on top of the unit.
<
Avoid installing this unit on top of any heat-generating
electrical device such as a power amplifier.
<
Make sure that the unit is mounted in a level position for
correct operation.
<
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.
<
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 unit, contact your dealer or service company.
<
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 always
close the disc tray.
<
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 playback
During playback, the disc rotates at high speed. Do NOT lift or
move the unit during playback. Doing so may damage the disc or
the unit.
When moving this unit
When changing places of installation or packing the unit for
moving, be sure to remove the disc and return the disc tray to
its closed position in the player. 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
If the unit (or a compact 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, let the player sit for one or two
hours at the new room temperature before using.
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.
