    Unpacking and Placement Unpacking the CDD Unpack your CDD Compact Disc Drive and remove all accessories from the car- ton. Important! Keep all packing materials for future transport of your CDD. Shipping your new component in anything other than its purpose-designed packing material may result in damage that is not covered by the warranty.

    Attempting to operate the CDD at an incorrect voltage can damage the unit. The CDD Compact Disc Drive is also set at the factory for operation on either 50 or 60 Hz AC line frequencies, as appropriate for the country in which it is to be sold.

  • Page 8: A Quick Start

    A Quick Start… We recognize that many people are understandably eager to begin listening to their new components, and that reading the manual is often done (if at all) at a later time—perhaps while listening to music with the new product itself. We strongly recommend that you read this manual thoroughly, as the CDD Compact Disc Drive incorporates many unusual features that enhance its operation.
