CAUTION - USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES
OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EX-
POSU RE.
THE COMPACT DISC PLAYER SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR REPAIRED BY ANYONE
EXCEPT PROPERLY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
* Because of the player's extremely low noise and wide dynamic range, there might be atendency to
turn the volume on the amplifier unnecessarily high. Doing so may produce an excessively large output
from the amplifier which could damage your speakers.
* Do not obstruct the air hores or place the player on an amplifier or anything that may give off heat.
* Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause dew to form on the optical lens inside. In
this condition the laser cannot pick up the signal and the unit will not operate properly. If this should
happen, do not use the player until it has adjusted to the surrounding temperature.
* Do not use volatile chemicals on this unit (insecticides, etc.). Clean by lightly wiping with asoft cloth.
*If trouble occurs ............

FEATURES
This pre_rmance Compact Disc Player reproduces adigital audio signal from a 4-3/4" (12-cm) disc by
means of a semiconductor laser pickup. This system can reproduce sound without noise or crosstalk and
with the same full dynamic range and feel of a live performance. Unlike conventional analog systems, this
digital system uses a pickup that scans the disc surface without coming into contact with it, thus giving
you unsurpassed operability that lets you listen to those selections that you want to hear quickly and
easily.
*Discs last almost forever thanks to the laser beam that picks up the signal so that nothing comes into
contact with the disc surface.
*Outstanding playback characteristics
Afrequency response of 5 - 20,000 Hz
Adynamic range of 90 dB or better
0.003% distortion
Wow and flutter that isvirtually undetectable
90 dB channel separation
This system surpassesall performance limits of conventional analog-system discs and players.
* Quick and easy selection search and programming thanks to the microcomputer.
* A variety of functions
Fast automatic selection search
Up to 16-selection program play (memory) - Listen to your favorite selections in any order.
