General Information
Safety information
● Before operating the system, check that the
operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or
the voltage indication beside the voltage
selector) of your system is identical with the
voltage of your local power supply. If not, please
consult your dealer.
●
Place the system on a flat, hard and stable
surface.
● The apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing.
●
Install the unit near the AC outlet and where the
AC power plug can be easily reached.
●
Place the system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in
your system. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit
and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side.
●
The ventilation should not be impeded by
covering the ventilation openings with items,
such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc.
●
Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to
excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources
caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.
●
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
should be placed on the apparatus.
●
No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on the apparatus.
●
If the system is brought directly from a cold to a
warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,
moisture may condense on the lens of the disc
unit inside the system. Should this occur, the CD
player would not operate normally. Leave the
power on for about one hour with no disc in the
system until normal playback is possible.
●
The mechanical parts of the set contain self-
lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or
lubricated.
● When the system is switched to Standby
mode, it is still consuming some power.
To disconnect the system from the
power supply completely, remove the AC
power plug from the wall socket.
Maintenance
●
When a disc becomes dirty,
clean it with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center
out, in a straight line.
●
Do not expose the player,
batteries or discs to humidity,
rain, sand or excessive heat
(caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).
Always keep the disc tray closed to avoid dust
on the lens.
●
Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner,
commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for colour discs.
●
The lens may cloud over when the player is
suddenly moved from cold to warm
surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc.
Leave the player in the warm environment until
the moisture evaporates.
