;OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED IN THE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE.
THE COMPACT DISC PLAYER SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR REPAIRED BY ANYONE EXCEPT PROPERLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
PRECAUTIONS
-If water should enter the unit, electrical shock or malfunction may -
result. Always use it in aplace where there is low humidity and little
dust.
-Do not use where there are extremes of temperature (below 5°C or
exceeding 35”C) or where direct sunlight may strike it.
Because of the CD player’s extremely low noise and wide dynamic -
range, there might be atendency to set the volume on the amplifier
unnecessarily high. Doing so may produce an excessively large
output from the amplifier which could damage your speakers.
Sudden changes in the ambient temperature may cause condensa-
tion to form on the optical lens inside the unit. Ifthis happens, take out
the 10-disc magazine, leave the unit with the magazine door opened
for about 1hour, and then proceed to operate.
Before transportation, remove the magazine from the unit.
The system’s speakers use powerful magnets. Do not place time-
pieces, credit cards, cassette tapes or video tapes, etc. near the
speakers.

FM aerial
The FM indoor aerial is sufficient to receive most local FM broadcasts and
should be connected to the EXT. ANT. terminal, Extend the aerial wire as
straight as possible and, while listening to the sound from the system,
secure it in aposition which yields minimal distortion and noise,
In fringe areas or where reception is distorted or noisy, an FM outdoor
aerial (not supplied) should be connected instead of the indoor aerial,
The terminals will accept 75-ohm coaxial cable. Consult your dealer.
Unwind the aerial wires (about 2turns), then connect them to the AM
LOOP ANT. terminals. Place the loop aerial in aposition which yields the
best AM reception, or attach itto awall or other surface as shown infigure.
