Important Safety Precautions

• Use only an approved power cable and plug or distribution board to connect your
player to a power outlet. Do not use an extension cable.
• Never touch the mains plug if your hands are wet.
• Do not attempt to open the equipment. The invisible laser beam in this compact disc
player is harmful to the eyes. Refer servicing and repair to qualified service
personnel. Touching live components inside the case can result in a fatal electrical
shock!
• Read the Owner's Manual and Safety Precautions before operating the equipment.
• Keep this Manual in a safe place so that you can refer to it later.
• Please heed all warnings on the equipment itself and in the Owner's Manual.
• Please follow the instructions contained in your Owner's manual and never use this
equipment for any purpose other than is explained in this Owner's Manual.
• Only connect this equipment to a power source of the type described in the Owner's
Manual and specified for this equipment.
• Make sure that there is adequate ventilation around the equipment to allow proper
cooling. Keep the equipment away from direct sunlight. Avoid installing the unit
close to sources of heat or in spaces such as bookshelves or cupboards where heat
radiation may be obstructed. Avoid excessive temperatures in the room, as these
could ultimately damage sensitive components and reduce the service life of your
player.
• Never use the unit in damp rooms, at temperatures of below 10°C, or in the open air.
When bringing your player in from the cold, allow it time to achieve room
temperature before plugging it in.
• Always switch the unit off before removing or inserting interconnects. Doing this
with the player switched on can damage not only the player itself but also
equipment connected to it.
• If you ever spill water or any other liquid onto the equipment: Do not touch the case!
Remove the plug from the wall outlet and contact your dealer or our service
department.
• Never remove the earth connection from the plug. It is there to ensure your safety.
• Arrange the power cable so that no one can accidentally stand on it. Avoid locating it
under objects that might put pressure on the cable. Pay particular attention to areas
where the cable exits from plugs, AC outlets and from the unit itself.
• Never operate the unit without being present. Disconnect the plug from the wall
outlet and remove all aerial connections (including cable aerials) when: you clean
the unit, you do not expect to use the unit for long periods of time, during an
electrical storm.
• If you have an external antenna or cable antenna connected to your hi-fi system, we
recommend that you use a signal isolating filter to avoid interference or damage
during thunderstorms.
• Problems: If you lose the sound while the player is operating, or if you notice smoke
or burning, switch the unit off immediately and contact your dealer or our service
department.
• Only replace defective fuses after you have traced and removed the cause of the
fault and then only with a fuse of the same rating. Remove the mains plug before
changing fuses. Use an insulated screwdriver to remove and replace the fuse.
