The voltage of the available power supply differs according to
country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the
area where this unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g.,
AC230V 50Hz or AC120V 60Hz) written on the rear panel.
Voltage Selector (Rear Panel)
Worldwide models are equipped with a voltage selector to con-
form with local power supplies. Be sure to set this switch to match
the power supply in your area before plugging in the unit. Models
without a voltage selector can only be used in areas where the
power supply voltage is the same as that of the unit.

damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take the unit to an
authorized service center for inspection.

provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of the unit especially
when it 1s placed in an audio rack. If ventilation 1s blocked, the
unit may overheat and malfunction.
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or heating units as the
unit’s internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the
pickup.
Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by vi-
brations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit
on or above one of the speakers.
Be sure the unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it
on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.
Do not place the unit near tuners or TV sets. If placed next to a
TV or tuner, it may cause reception interference resulting in some
noise in the TV or tuner output.
Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and the
cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a
weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and wipe
off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do
not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents
or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove the panel
lettering.

Points to remember
If the unit is brought from a cold environment to a warm one or 1s
in a cold room that is quickly heated, condensation may form on
the pickup, preventing proper operation. In this case, remove the
disc and leave the power ON for about one hour to remove the
condensation.
Always close the disc tray when not loading or unloading discs to
protect delicate internal parts from dust.
When transporting the unit, be careful not to bump it.
