Precautions

On safety

• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not

place objects filled with liquids, such
as vases, on the apparatus.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall

into the cabinet, unplug the player and
have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.

On power sources

• The player is not disconnected from the

AC power source as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
player itself has been turned off.

• If you are not going to use the player

for a long time, be sure to disconnect
the player from the wall outlet. To
disconnect the AC power cord, grasp
the plug itself; never pull the cord.

On placement

• Place the player in a location with

adequate ventilation to prevent heat
build-up in the player.

• Do not place the player on a soft

surface such as a rug that might block
the ventilation holes.

• Do not place the player in a location

near heat sources, or in a place subject
to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or
mechanical shock.

• Do not install the player in an inclined

position. It is designed to be operated
in a horizontal position only.

• Keep the player and the discs away

from equipment with strong magnets,
such as microwave ovens, or large
loudspeakers.

• Do not place heavy objects on the

player.

• Do not install this player in a confined

space, such as a bookshelf or similar
unit.

• Install this player so that the power

cord can be unplugged from the wall
socket immediately in the event of
trouble.

On operation

• If the player 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
player. Should this occur, the player
may not operate properly. In this case,
remove the disc and leave the player
turned on for about half an hour until
the moisture evaporates.

• When you move the player, take out

any discs. If you don’t, the disc may be
damaged.

On adjusting volume

Do not turn up the volume while
listening to a section with very low level
inputs or no audio signals. If you do, the
speakers may be damaged when a peak
level section is played.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls
with a soft cloth slightly moistened with
a mild detergent solution. Moreover,
wipe the glass part on the front panel
with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use any
type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

On cleaning discs, disc/lens
cleaners

Do not use a commercially available
cleaning disc or disc/lens cleaner (wet or
spray type). These may cause the
apparatus to malfunction.

On replacement of parts

In the events that this player is repaired,
repaired parts may be collected for reuse
or recycling purposes.
