Warnings:

•

The AC adapter is used as disconnect device and it should remain readily

operable during intended used. In order to disconnect the apparatus from

the mains completely, the AC adapter should be disconnected from the

mains socket outlet completely.

•

Minimum 10 cm (4 inches) distances around the apparatus for sufficient

ventilations.

•

Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or

the like.

•

Theventilationshouldnotbeimpededbycoveringtheventilationopenings

with items such as newspaper, table-cloths, curtains, etc.

•

No naked flame sources such as lighted candles should be placed on the

apparatus.

On Safety

As the laser beam used in this compact disc player could be harmful to the

eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to qualified

personnel only.

•

Do not put any foreign objects in the disc compartment. If you do so, the

laser beam interlock may be defeated allowing the laser to remain on when

the lid is opened.

•

Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN jack. Should any objects or

liquids fall into the unit, disconnect the power supply and have the unit

checked by qualified personnel before any further operation.

On Operation

Since the CD system offers a wide dynamic range, the peaks of the high level

inputs are recorded with high fidelity, and the noise level is very low. Do not

turn up the volume while listening to a part of the disc with no audio signals

or very low level inputs. If you do so, the speakers may be damaged when the

peak level of the sound is played. The lens of the laser should be kept clean.

Do not touch the lens. If you do so, the lens may be damaged and the unit will

not operate correctly.

On Use

Never use the unit where it would be subject to:

-

Heat sources such as radiators or air ducts.

-

Direct sunlight.

-

Excessive dust.

-

Moisture or rain.

-

Mechanical vibration or shock.

-

Uneven surface.

• Do not place any heavy objects on top of the unit.

• When the unit is used with an AC power adapter, do not wrap the unit in

a cloth, blanket, etc. If you do so, the temperature inside and outside the

unit may rise considerably, resulting in malfunctioning of the unit.

• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed

in a very damp room, the moisture may condense on the lens inside the

unit. Should this occur, the unit will not operate. In this case, remove the

disc and leave the unit in a warm place for several hours until the moisture

evaporates.

• For the unit to operate at its best, it should not be subject to temperatures

below 41°F (5°C) or above 95°F (35°C).
