This product is designed to playback discs that
conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard.
Recently, various music discs encoded with
copyright protection technologies are
marketed by some record companies. Please
be aware that among those discs, there are
some that do not conform to the CD standard
and may not be playable by this product.
On safety
As the laser beam used in the CD player
section is harmful to eyes, do not attempt to
disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to
qualified personnel only.
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
unit, unplug the unit, and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart,
square, star) cannot be played on this unit.
Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do
not use such discs.
On power sources
For AC operation, use the supplied AC power
cord; do not use any other cord.
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not
to be used for an extended period of time.
When not using the batteries, remove them to
avoid damage that can be caused by battery
leakage or corrosion.
On placement
Do not leave the unit in a location near heat
sources, in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or mechanical shock, or in a car
subject to the direct rays of the sun.
Do not place the unit on an inclined or
unstable surface.
Do not place anything within 10 mm of the rear
of the cabinet. The ventilation openings must
be unobstructed for the unit to operate
properly and prolong the life of its
components.
Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers,
keep personal credit cards using magnetic
coding or spring-wound watches away from
the unit to prevent possible damage from the
magnet.
On operation
If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a
warm location, or is placed in a very damp
room, moisture may condense on the lens
inside the CD player section. Should this occur,
the unit will not operate properly. In this case,
remove the CD and wait about an hour for the
moisture to evaporate.
On handling the unit
Do not leave the CD compartment open to
