PRECAUTIONS
ON SAFETY
As the laser beam used in this compact disc player could be harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to
disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
• Do not put any foreign objects in the disc compartment. If you do so, the laser beam interlock

or liquid fall into the unit, disconnect the power supply and have the unit checked by qualified personnel
before any further operation.
ON OPERATION
Since the CD system offers a wide dynamic range, the peaks of the high level inputs are recorded with
high fidelity, and the noise level is very low. Do not turn up the volume while listening to a part of
the disc with no audio signals or very low level inputs. If you do so, the speakers may be damaged
when the peak level of the sound is played. The lens of the laser should be kept clean. Do not touch the lens
or poke at it with your fingers. If you do so, the lens may be damaged and the unit will not operate correctly.
CAUTION
The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.
