Before you get going
There are some commonsense precautions which you should note before starting to work
with the CD-RW402.
• Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a bookcase or similar unit, and
make sure there is enough space at the rear for cable connections, and for ventilation.
Allow 1U of rack space above the unit for ventilation.
• Avoid very hot, very cold or very humid locations for the CD-RW402.
• If possible, make the area where you work with the CD-RW402 into a smoke-free zone.
Smoke and dust are enemies of precision electronic devices.
• Always use high-quality cables and connectors with the CD-RW402, especially when
making digital audio connections.
• Always make connections to and from the CD-RW402 with the power turned off to all
units. This avoids possible damage to components, as well as avoiding "thumps", etc.
through the monitoring system.
• If anything appears to be wrong with the CD-RW402:
• If an error message appears, make a note of it, as well as what you were doing immedi-
ately prior to the problem occurring.
• Read the manual. It may well contain something which is relevant to the problem you
have encountered.
• If you have Internet access, visit your local TASCAM Web site for the latest product
news, etc.
• Do not attempt to repair the CD-RW402 yourself. Arrange for it to be examined and
repaired by TASCAM-authorized service personnel.
