dealer.
Certain versions of this player are equipped with a voltage
selector on the rear panel. If you need to change the setting from
220/240 V to 110/120 V, you must at the same time replace the
200 mA fuse in FUSE holder with a 400 mA type.

produce considerable heat.
- Always stand the player horizontally on a flat, firm base. Allow
space around it for ventilation.
- Never place the player in a hot sunny position.
- Never allow the player to get damp.
- Keep the player free from dust as far as possible.
- Never attempt to repair the player yourself. This will make the
guarantee void.
