Cautions on handling
tBefore turning the power switch on
Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are
no problems with the connection cables.
tWhen leaving home for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the
power cord from the power outlet.
tProper ventilation
If the unit is left in a room full of the smoke from cigarettes, etc., for
long periods of time, the surface of the optical pickup may get dirty,
preventing it from receiving the signals properly.
tAbout condensation
If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of
the unit and its surroundings, condensation may form on parts inside
the unit, causing the unit to fail to operate properly.
If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power off
and wait until there is little difference in temperature before using
the unit.
tCautions on using mobile phones
Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If that
occurs, move the mobile phone away from the unit when it is in use.
tMoving the unit
Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
Next, disconnect the cables connected to other system units before
moving the unit.

tMake sure the disc tray is fully open when inserting the disc.

may damage the unit.
Cautions on loading discs

the unit or scratch the discs.
tDo not use cracked or warped discs or discs that have been repaired
with adhesive, etc.
tDo not use discs on which the sticky part of cellophane tape or labels
is exposed or on which there are traces of where labels have been
removed. Such discs can get caught inside the player and damage it.
