DEAR STUDEBAKER CUSTOMER
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement
your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's
Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at
a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or
distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound can be
deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what
sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by
setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without
distortion.
• Once you have established a comfortable sound level: Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future.
After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For a Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of
fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is
often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group
recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Customer's Record:
The serial number of this product is found on its bottom cover. You should note the serial
number of this unit in the space provided as a permanent record of your purchase to aid in
identification in the event of theft of loss.

This player incorporates an electronic anti-skip circuit to prevent interruption of the sound

shock system will automatically activate when a disc is played.
Once anti-skip buffer is full, it will give you approximately 60 seconds (CD disc) or 120
seconds (MP3 disc) of protection against interruption of sound output. If the player is
subjected to shock or rolling for longer than the buffer memory, some interruption of sound
output will occur. This is normal and to be expected and the sound will resume once the
player has stabilized from the shock or rolling disturbance.
Note: The anti-skip function provides for continues sound output when the unit is subjected
to shock or vibration. It will not compensate for errors arising from the use of defective,
scratched or dirty discs.
