Precautions for use
o Do not install this unit in a location that could become hot . This
includes places that are exposed to direct sunlight or near a radia-
tor, heater, stove or other heating equipment . Moreover, do not
place it on top of an amplifier or other equipment that generates
heat . Doing so could cause discoloration or deformation .
o Avoid locations that are extremely cold or exposed to excessive
humidity or dust .
o In order to enable good heat dissipation, leave at least 20 cm (8")
between this unit and walls and other equipment when installing
it . If you put it in a rack, take precautions to prevent overheating
by leaving at least 5 cm (8") open above the top of the unit and
at least 10 cm (4") open behind the unit . Failure to provide these
gaps could cause heat to build up inside and result in fire .
o If installing in a rack with a glass door, do not use the remote con-
trol tray OPEN/CLOSE (-) button to open the disc tray when the
door is closed . If the disc tray is forcibly prevented from moving,
damage could result .
o Place the unit in a stable location near the audio system that you
will use with it .
o Do not put cloth on top of the unit or place the unit on top of
bedding or thick carpet . Doing so could cause the unit to over-
heat or damage it .
o Do not lift or move the unit during playback because the disc
rotates at high speed . Doing so could damage the disc .
o Always remove any loaded disc before moving this unit or pack-
ing it for installation in a different location, for example . Moving
the unit with a disc inside could cause damage .
o Supply voltage to the unit that matches the voltage indicated on
the rear panel . If you are in any doubt regarding this matter, con-
sult an electrician .
o Do not open the body of the unit as this might result in damage
to the circuitry or cause electric shock . If a foreign object should
get into the unit, contact your dealer .
