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.
• While operating, do not move, shake,
or otherwise allow any shock to the

position where it is not subject to
vibration.
• Do not touch the disc if it is still
spinning when you open the lid.

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.
Turn the volume down before you start
playback.

potentially dangerous to play your
headsets at high volume while walking,
especially at pedestrian crossing. You

reduce volume or discontinue use.

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