On moisture condensation
If the player is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture
may condense on the lens inside the unit. Should this
occur, the player will not operate. In this case, remove
the disc and leave the player turned on for about an
hour until the moisture evaporates.
On safety
¢ Operate the unit only on 120 V AC, 60 Hz.
¢ Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet.
Unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified person-
nel before operating it any further.
¢ Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it will not be used
for a long time. To disconnect the cord, pull if out by
grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
¢ As the laser beam used in this compact disc player is
harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the
cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
On operation
When the unit is not used, turn the power off, to conserve
energy and to extend the useful life of your unit.
Important
Since the CD system boasts a wide dynamic range, the
peaks of high level inputs are recorded with high fidel-
ity, and the noise level is very low.
Do not turn up the volume while listening to a portion
with no audio signals or very low level inputs if you do,
the speakers may be damaged when a peak level
portion is played.
For detailed safety precautions, see the leaflet
"IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS’.
\f you have any questions or problems concerning your
unit, please contact you nearest Sony dealer.
