Precautions

Safety

• The power requirements of this unit are indicated on the AC adapter. Check that the unit’s operating voltage is identical with your local power supply.

• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus.

Installing

• Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.

• Keep the unit and discs away from equipment with strong magnet, such as microwave ovens, or large loudspeakers.

• Do not place heavy objects on the unit.

Notes About the

Discs

• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the surface.

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as the temperature may rise considerably inside the car.

• After playing, store the disc in its case.

• Clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the centre out.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, disc/lens cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

• If you have printed the disc’s label, dry the label before playing.

Precautions

Road safety

Do not use the monitor unit and headphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. Doing so may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in some areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your headsets at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings.

You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

On safety

Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the player and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

On power sources

• The player is not disconnected from the AC power source

(mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.

• If you are not going to use the player for a long time, be sure to disconnect the player from the wall outlet. To disconnect the

AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.

• Do not touch the mains lead or the AC adaptor with wet hands.

Doing so may cause shock hazard.

On temperature increases

Heat may build up inside the player during charging or if it is being used for a long time. This is not a malfunction.

On placement

• Place the player in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the player.

• Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a rug that might block the ventilation holes.

• Do not place the player in a confined space such as a bookshelf or similar unit.

• To reduce the risk of fire, do not cover the ventilation of the apparatus with newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.

• Do not place the player in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, sand, moisture, rain, or mechanical shock, or in a car with its windows closed.

On operation

• If the player is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lenses inside the player. Should this occur, the player may not operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and leave the player turned on for about half an hour until the moisture evaporates.

• When you move the player, take out any discs. If you do not, the disc may be damaged.

• Keep the lens on the player clean and do not touch it. Touching the lens may damage the lens and cause the player to malfunction.

Leave the disc lid closed except when you insert or remove discs.

On Liquid Crystal Display

• Although manufactured with high precision technology, the

LCD may occasionally display dots of various colours. That is not a malfunction.

• Do not wipe the LCD surface with wet cloth. If water enters, a malfunction may result.

• Do not place or drop any object onto the LCD surface. Also, do not apply pressure from hands or elbows.

• If the player is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, moisture may condense over the

LCD surface. In which case, wipe out the moisture with tissue paper, etc., before use.

However, moisture condensation will continue if the LCD surface is cold. Wait until the surface warms to room temperature.

On AC adaptor

Install this system so that the mains lead can be unplugged from the wall socket immediately in the event of trouble.

• Use the supplied AC adaptor for this player, as other adaptors may cause a malfunction.

• Do not confine the AC adaptor in a closed place such as a bookshelf or an AV cabinet.

,continued 3

• Do not connect the AC adaptor to a traveler’s electric transformer, which may generate heat and cause a malfunction.

On battery pack

• Certain countries may regulate disposal of the battery used to power this product. Please consult with your local authority.

• Because of the battery’s limited life, its capacity gradually deteriorates over time and repeated use. Purchase a new one when the battery holds about only half the normal period.

• The battery may not be charged to its fullest capacity when charged for the first time, or when it has not been used for a long time. The capacity recovers after being charged and discharged several times.

• Do not leave the battery pack in a car or direct sunlight, where temperature goes up above

60 ºC.

• Do not expose to water.

• Avoid short-circuiting the battery connecting jacks (A) located on the bottom of the player and the connecting jacks

(C) on the battery pack with metal objects such as a necklace.

• Make sure dust or sand does not enter the battery connecting jacks (A) and the guide holes (B) located on the bottom of the player, and the connecting jacks

(C) and the guide holes (D) on the battery pack.

• Do not place the car adaptor in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight or mechanical shock, or in a car with its windows closed.

On adjusting volume

Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level section is played.

On headphones

Preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones at high volumes. Hearing experts advice against continuous, loud, and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use.

Showing consideration for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and still be considerate to the people around you.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

On cleaning discs, disc/ lens cleaners

Do not use cleaning discs or disc/ lens cleaners (including wet or spray types). These may cause the apparatus to malfunction.
