This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

On safety
As the laser beam used in this compact disc player is harmful to
the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to
qualified personnel only.
Do not put any foreign objects in the safety slot inside the disc
compartment. If you do so, the laser beam may come out when the lid is
opened.
Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN 6V (external power input) jack.
Should any solid objects or liquid fall into the unit, disconnect the power
supply and have the unit checked by qualified personnel before operat-
ing it any further.
On operation
Since the CD system offers a wide dynamic range, the peaks of the high
level inputs are recorded with high fidelity, and the noise level is very
low. Do not turn up the volume while listening to a part of the disc with
no audio signals or very low level inputs. If you do, the speakers may be
damaged when the peak level of the sound is played. The lens on the
disc table should be kept clean. Do not touch the lens or poke at it. If you
do, the lens may be damaged and the unit will not operate properly.
On installation
Never install the unit where it would be subjected to:
- heat sources such as radiators or airducts
- direct sunlight
- excessive dust
- moisture or rain
- mechanical vibration or shock
- unleveled surface
Do not place any heavy object on top of the unit.
When the unit is used with an AC power adaptor, do not wrap the unit
in a cloth, blanket, etc. If you do, the temperature inside and outside
the unit may rise considerably, resulting in malfunctioning of the unit
or serious accidents.
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 unit. Should this occur, the unit will not operate. In this case,
remove the disc and leave the unit in a warm place for several hours
until the moisture evaporates.
For the unit to operate at its best, it should not be subjected to
temperatures below 5°C (41°F) or above 35°C (95°F).
Notes on headphones/earphone
Do not use headphones/earphone while driving, cycling, or operating
any motorized vehicle, it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
some areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your headsets
