Precautions
Safety
¥ This unit operates on 110 - 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz.
Check that the unit's operating voltage is identical
with your local power supply.
¥ If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and
have it checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
¥ The unit is not disconnected from the mains as long
as it is connected to the mains outlet, even if the unit
itself has been turned off.
¥ Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if you do not
intend to use it for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by
the cord.
Installing
¥ Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal
heat buildup.
¥ Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.)
or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block
the ventilation slots.
¥ Do not install the unit near heat sources such as
radiators or air dusts, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or
shock.
¥ 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 magnets, such as microwave ovens or large
loudspeakers.
¥ Do not place heavy objects on the unit.
¥ If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, moisture may condense inside the CD/
DVD player and cause damage to the lenses. When
you first install the unit, or when you move it from a
cold to a warm location, wait for about one hour
before operating the unit.
For the model supplied with the AC plug
adaptor
If the AC plug of your unit does not fit into the wall
outlet, attach the supplied AC plug adaptor.
