SITING THE COMPACT DISC PLAYER
Free-standing
• Always position the player horizontally on a flat,
firm surface.
• Allow a free space of at least 3 cm above the
player so as notto interfere with the cooling of the
player.
In an audio rack
• The player can be sited in any desired position.
Stacked
• Site the player preferably at the bottom or at the
top.
• Never position the player directly on top of a
high-power amplifier, as such an amplifier gives
off a substantial amount of heat.
Warning
Never allow the player to stand for long periods in
direct sunlight or near a heat source.
