Notes on discs
• Before playing, wipe the disc with a cleaning
cloth from the center out to the edge.
• Do not clean discs with solvents, such as
benzine thinner, or commercially available
cleaners or anti-static spray intended for
vinyl LPs.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a
car parked in direct sunlight.
On safety
• The unit is not disconnected from the
AC power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall socket, even if the unit
itself has been turned off.
• Completely disconnect the power cord
(mains lead) from the wall socket (mains)
if it is not going to be used for an extended
period of time. When unplugging the unit,
always grip the plug. Never pull the cord
itself.
• Should any solid object or liquid get into
the system, unplug the system, and have
it checked by qualified personnel before
operating it again.
• The AC power cord can be changed only by
a qualified service facility.
On placement
• Do not place the system in an inclined
position or in locations that are extremely
hot, cold, dusty, dirty, or humid or lacking
adequate ventilation, or subject to vibration,
direct sunlight or a bright light.
• Be careful when placing the unit or speakers
on surfaces that have been specially treated
(for example, with wax, oil, polish) as
staining or discoloration of the surface may
result.
• If the system is brought directly from a
cold to a warm location or is placed in a
very damp room, moisture may condense
on the lens inside the CD player, and cause
the system to malfunction. In this situation,
remove the disc, and leave the system turned
on for about an hour until the moisture
evaporates.
On heat buildup
• Heat buildup on the unit during operation is
normal and is not cause for alarm.
• Do not touch the cabinet if it has been used
continuously at a high volume because the
cabinet may have become hot.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.
On the speaker system
This speaker system is not magnetically
shielded, and the picture on nearby TV sets
may become magnetically distorted. In this
situation, turn off the TV, wait 15 to 30
minutes, and turn it back on. If there is no
improvement, move the speakers far away
from the TV.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: If you leave a still video image or
on-screen display image displayed on your TV
for an extended period of time via this system,
you risk permanent damage to your TV screen.
Projection TVs are especially susceptible to
this.
