Before Use

Read this before operation
< As the unit may become warm during operation, always leave
sufficient space around the unit for ventilation.
< The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage as
printed on the rear panel of the supplied subwoofer. If you
are in any doubt regarding this matter, consult an electrician.
< Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also
avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat,
cold or moisture.
< Do not place the unit on an amplifier/receiver or any other
electronic device that generates heat.
< Do not open the sealed cabinet as this might result in damage
to the circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should
get inside the unit, contact your dealer or service agency.
< When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always
pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.
< To keep the laser pickup clean, do not touch it, and always
close the CD door.
< Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as
this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
< Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT DURING PLAYBACK
During playback, the disc rotates at high speed. Do NOT lift or
move the unit during playback. Doing so may damage the
disc or the laser assembly.
WHEN MOVING THIS UNIT
When relocating or packing the unit for moving, be sure to
remove the disc. Moving this unit with the disc loaded may
result in damage to this unit.
Beware of condensation
When the unit (or a disc) is moved from a cold to a warm
place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a
danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on
the internal mechanism, making correct operation erratic or
impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the unit for
one or two hours with the power turned on. The unit will
stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings.
Maintenance
If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or
use diluted mild liquid soap. Never spray liquid directly on this
unit. Apply your cleaner to your cleaning cloth and wipe
gently. Be sure to remove any excess completely. Do not use
thinner, benzene or alcohol as they may damage the surface
of the unit. Allow the surface of the unit to dry completely
before using
