Before Use
Read This Before Operating
© Choose the installation location of your
unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct
sunlight or close to a source of heat.
Also
avoid
locations
subject
to
vibrations and excessive dust, heat,
cold or moisture. Keep away from such
sources
that hum, such as trans-
formers or motors.
Do not open the cabinet as this might
result in damage
to the circuitry or
electrical shock. If a foreign object
should get into the set, contact your
dealer.
© Be sure not to handle discs with dirty
fingers. Never insert a disc which has
a crack on the surface.
@ When removing the power plug from
the wall outlet, always pull directly on
the plug, never yank the cord.
© To keep the laser-pickup clean, do not
touch it, and do not forget to close the
disc tray.
©
Do not attempt to clean the unit with
chemical
solvents
as this might
damage the finish. Use a clean, dry
cloth.
© Keep this manual in a safe place for
future reference.
Beware of condensation
When the player (or a compact disc) is
moved from a cold to a warm place or
used
after
a sudden
temperature
change,
there
is the
danger
of
condensation. Water vapor in the air
could condense on the mechanism or
the laser pickup. If droplets of water
form on these parts, correct playback
will be impossible because the laser
cannot read the information from the
disc correctly. To prevent this, if you
are
going to use the
player
in a
condition where condensation could
occur, you should leave the player for
1 or 2hours after plugging it into an AC
outlet depending on the amount
of
condensation.
If this is done, the
player will stabilize at the temperature
of its surroundings.
Handling the Discs
This unit has been designed specifically
for reproduction of compact discs bearing
the * GEG" mark. No other discs can be
reproduced.
©
Always place the compact disc in the
disc tray with the label facing upward.
(Compact discs can be played only on
one side.)
© To remove a disc from its storage
case, press down on the center of the
case and lift the disc out, holding it
carefully by the edges.
How to remove the disc
@ Fingermarks and dust should be
carefully
wiped
off the
disc's
recorded surface with a soft cloth.
Wipe radially
© Never use such chemicals as record
sprays,
antistatic
sprays
or fluid,
benzine or thinner to clean compact
discs.
Such
chemicals
will do
irreparable damage
to the disc's
plastic surface.
© Discs should be returned to their
cases after use to avoid serious
scratches that could cause the laser
pickup to "skip.
© Do not expose discs to direct sunlight
or high humidity and temperature for
extended periods.
Long exposure to high temperatures
can warp the disc.
©
Do not stick paper or write anything
with a ballpoint pen on the surface of
the label side.
