until the condensation disappears. Never dry discs with hair dryers,
etc.
Precautions on storage

e Keep discs in the cases when they are not to be played. This will
protect them from dust and dirt and prolong their service life.
not store discs in the following places:
1) Places exposed to direct sunlight for a considerable time.
2) Places subject to accumulation of dust or high humidity.

outlets.
The CD player uses a microcomputer for controlling internal electronic
circuits. In the event that the player is used while a near-by tuner or TV is
turned on, although unlikely, interference could occur either in the sound
from the tuner or the picture of the TV. To avoid this, please take the
following precautions.
PLAYBACK USING THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
Keep the CD player as far away from the tuner or TV set as possible.
Keep the power cable and connecting cable of the CD player separate
from the antenna wires of the tuner and TV.
Interference is particular likely to occur when an indoor antenna or a
300-ohm feeder cable is used. Thus, use of an outdoor antenna and
75-ohm coaxial cable is strongly recommended.
The accessory RC-216 remote control unit can be used to control the CD
player from a convenient distance.

Notes on the Batteries
e
e
The remote contro! unit uses standard size AAA dry cell batteries.
The batteries will need to be replaced approximately once a year.
Replacement may be necessary earlier depending on how much the
remote control unit is used.
If, in less than a year from the time new batteries were inserted, the
remote control fails to operate the CD player from a near-by position, it
is time to replace the batteries.
Insert the batteries properly, following the polarity diagram inside the
battery compartment, in other words make sure (+) and (—) terminals
are properly aligned.
Batteries are prone to damage and leakage.
Therefore:
e Do not combine new batteries with used ones.
e Do not combine different types of batteries.
e Donot jumper opposite poies of the batteries, expose them to heat,
break them open nor expose of them in open fire.
If the remote control unit is not to be used for a long period of time,
remove the batteries from the unit.
If the batteries have leaked, remove any traces of battery fluid from the
battery compartment, wiping thoroughly with a dry cloth. Then insert
new batteries.
When a remote control signal is received, the remote control indicator on
front of the CD player lights briefly.
The remote control unit can be used at a distance up to 8 meters in a
straight line from the CD player. This distance decreases if there are
obstructions blocking the signal path or when the remote control unit is
operated at an angie from the remote control sensor.
The buttons on the remote control unit have identical functions with
those on the CD player.
However, the following functions cannot be remote controlled: Power -
ON/OFF. Open and close the disc holder. Turning the digital outputs on
and off, and random playback.
Cautions on Use

control unit simultaneously, as this will result. in malfunction.
The remote control unit may not operate properly if the rervote control
sensor is exposed to direct sunlight or strong artificial lighting, or if
there is an object between the remote control unit and the remote
control sensor. an ;
