INAPPROPRIATE PLACES FOR
INSTALLATION
To keep your player in perfect working order for the
longest possible time, avoid installing the player in
the following locations.
• Wherever it will be exposed to direct sunlight
• Wherever it will be close to a heater or other heat-
radiating appliance
• Wherever the humidity is high or ventilation is
poor
• Wherever it is very dusty
• Wherever it will be subject to vibration
• On top of a rickety stand or in an unstable location
which is tilted at an angle
• On top of an amplifier or other component which
dissipates a great deal of heat
• In an audio rack with little space at the top
and bottom or other location where the heat
dissipation will be obstructed
To ensure proper heat dissipation, install the player
while leaving clearances between the player and
wall or other components, as shown in the figure
below.

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING MAINS CORD
• Do not touch the mains cord with wet hands.
• When disconnecting the mains cord, always
make sure that you take hold of the plug. Yanking
out or bending the cord can damage it and/or
cause electric shocks or a fire.
• Get into the habit of disconnecting the power
plug before leaving home.
DO NOT ATTEMPT REPAIRS YOURSELF
• Refrain from lubricating the player: doing so can
cause malfunctioning.
• Only qualified engineers with specialized
expertise are authorized to repair the pick-up and
parts inside the player.
PRECAUTIONS
• In winter, droplets of water form on the insides
of the windows of a heated room: this is called
condensation. This CD player uses an optical
lens, so the condensation may form in the
following cases.
- In a room immediately after the heating has
been turned on
- In a room where the humidity level is high
- When the player has been suddenly brought
from a cold location into a warm room
Since, in cases like this, the track numbers may
not be read and the player is prevented from
operating properly, wait about 30 minutes, and
then operate the player.
• This player may cause interference on a tuner or
TV set. If this is the case, place it further away
from the tuner or TV set.
• Compact discs have much less noise than analog
records and hardly any noise is heard before play
starts. Bear in mind, therefore, that if the volume
control on the amplifier is set too high, you will
risk damaging other audio components.
• This audio player is for the exclusive playing of
Audio CDs (Compact Discs) and MP3/WMA
compressed data files.
It cannot play CD-ROMs used with personal
computers, game CDs, video CDs, DVDs (video/
audio) or DTS-CDs.
• We do not recommend the use of lens cleaners.
