Harman Kardon HD7450 Owners Manual - Page 5

HD7450 Basics Placement The HD7450 is fully shielded and may be placed on top of or under other stereo components as long as the "feet" provide sufficient clearance for cooling of the component below. Please make sure that the HD7450 receives adequate ventilation. It should always be located away from heat sources such as radiators, fireplaces, stoves, and other appliances that produce heat. Avoid placing the unit in locations that receive prolonged direct sunlight or extremely low temperatures. While your compact disc player is designed to be vibration-resistant, excessive shocks or placement too close to large speakers can cause "stuttering" or skipping. When choosing a place for your new CD player, take the same precautions you would with a turntable. Cleaning Use only a clean dry cloth to clean your compact disc player. Do not use solvents such as alcohol, benzine, gasoline, etc. Take care that excessive dust does not accumulate on your unit, and that objects are not dropped inside or liquids spilled into the unit. Water and moisture Do not operate this compact disc player around water (e.g., near a swimming pool, sink, or in a wet basement). Abnormal smells If you detect an abnormal smell or smoke, immediately turn the compact disc player off and pull out the power cord. Contact your dealer or nearest Harman Kardon service center. Care of the laser pickup The laser pickup that detects the music recorded on a CD is located under the compact disc drawer. The laser pickup, especially its precision lens, is particularly sensitive to dust. Keep the disc drawer closed when the unit is not in use, and do not put your hand inside the unit. Interference This compact disc player uses high-frequency signals that can sometimes interfere with reception in tuners and televisions. If you start to experience reception problems after connecting and turning on your CD player, move the CD player farther away from your turner or television set or turn the CD player off when it is not in use. Power source The HD7450 should be connected only to a 120 volt, 60 cycle power supply. Power cord protection The power cord should be routed in such a way that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items laying on or against it. Any power cord is susceptible to stress at the point where it joins the plug and the point where it exits from the back of the unit, so take care not to fold or bend it excessively at those points. Never pull or stretch the cord. The CD player's power cord should be unplugged from the outlet when the unit is left unused for a long period of time. Service Your compact disc player should be serviced by authorized Harman Kardon service personnel when • The plug or power cord has been damaged. • Objects have fallen into the unit. • Liquid has been spilled into the unit • The unit has been exposed to rain. • The unit does not operate normally. • The unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged. Please do not attempt to service your compact disc player beyond the troubleshooting suggestions in this manual. All other service should be referred to authorized Harman Kardon service personnel.
