Do not expose your player to extreme temperatures or humidity. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing. No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, shall be placed on the apparatus. Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the AC power plug can be reached easily. The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items, such as newpapers, table-cloths, cur tains, et.

Do not expose the player, batteries or discs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight). Always keep the disc tray closed to avoid dust on the lens. Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for colour discs. The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc. Leave the player in the warm environment until the moisture evaporates. 43 English In a cabinet, allow about 10cm (4 inches) of free Connections IMPORTANT! ­ The type plate is located at the bottom of the system. ­ Before connecting the AC power cord to the wall outlet, ensure that all other connections have been made. ­ Never make or change any connections with the power switched on.
