CAUTION - USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES

OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED IN THE OPERATION INSTRUCTION MAY RESULT IN HAZARD-

OUS RADIATION EXPOSURE.

THIS PRODUCT SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR REPAIRED BY ANYONE EXCEPT PROPERLY

QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

• The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

• No object filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

• Do not use where there are extremes of temperature (below 5

°

C or exceeding 35

°

C).

• Because of the CD player’s extremely low noise and wide dynamic range, there might be a tendency to set the volume on the amplifier unnecessarily high. Doing so may produce an excessively large output from the amplifier which could damage your speakers.

• Sudden changes in the ambient temperature may cause condensation to form on the optical lens inside the unit. If this happens, take out the disc, leave the unit for about 1 hour, and then proceed to operate.

• Do not install this equipment in a confined space, such as a book case or built in cabinet.
