• Away from areas with high temperatures, high humidity or direct sunlight.
• Away from excess dirt and dust.
• Away from open windows and any place where water may get into the unit.
• Disturbance: When you place this unit near a TV, radio or VCR, the playback
picture quality may deteriorate and the sound may be distorted. To avoid these
problems, place the unit away from these appliances.
• Power connection: This equipment can only be disconnected from the power
supply by unplugging it from the mains socket. Make sure the mains socket is
readily accessible at all times.
Electrical safety and cord handling
• Protect from moisture: Do not expose this equipment, the power supply cord
and plug to rain or moisture; do not use it anywhere near water or where water
splashes or drips; do not touch the power plug with wet hands.
• Do not open: To prevent contact with high voltage components inside, do not
attempt to open the equipment. Do not repair the unit yourself; there are no
user-serviceable parts inside. Only have it serviced by qualied personnel.
• Plug replacement: When replacing the unit’s power plug or cord, the replacement
must be exactly the same or one recommended by the manufacturer. Do not
replace the plug or cord yourself.
• Voltage: Before installing this equipment, make sure your outlet voltage
corresponds to the voltage stated on the appliance rating label.
Cord and plug: Only use this equipment with the cord and plug supplied. Align
the plug properly and insert it fully. Do not overload the power outlet.

Moisture condensation
The unit may suer from condensation in the following situations:
• When you take the unit directly from a cold to a warm place, and vice versa.
• When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on a heater, or where cold
air from an air conditioner is directed on to the unit.
• When you use the unit in hot and humid surrounds just after having moved it
from an air conditioned room.
• When the room is steamy or damp.
If condensation exists, the unit will not operate properly. Remove any disc,
plug the power cord into the wall socket, turn on the unit and leave it for two
to three hours. After that time, the unit will have warmed up and any moisture
will have evaporated. Keeping the unit connected to the wall socket will keep
moisture condensation problems to a minimum.
