Suggestions for safety
Avoid placing the unit in areas of:
o direct sunlight
• high temperature
® high humidity
® excessive vibration
• uneven surfaces (Place the unit on a flat level surface.)
Such conditions might damage the cabinet and/or other component
parts and thereby shorten the unit's service life.
Never place heavy items on top of the unit or the AC power cord.
• It is very dangerous to use an AC power source of high voltage
such as for an air conditioner.
A fire might be caused by such a connection,
e A DC power source can not be used.
Be sure to check the power source carefully, especially if on a ship
or other place where DC is used.
a Avoid cuts, scratches or poor connection of the AC power cord, as
this may result in fire or electric shock.
Excessive bending, pulling or slicing of the cord should also be
avoided.
« Do not pull on the cord when you are disconnecting the power, as
this could cause an electric shock. Grasp the plug firmly when
you disconnect the power supply.
® Never touch the plug with wet hands or a serious electric shock
could result.
«Ensure that no foreign objects, such as needles, coins,
screwdrivers etc., accidentally fall into the unit.
Otherwise, a serious electric shock or malfunction could occur.
®Be extremely careful about spilling water or liquid on/into the
unit, as a fire or electric shock could occur.
{Disconnect the power plug and contact your dealer immediately
if this occurs.)
• Avoid spraying insecticides onto the unit as they contain
flammable gases which can be ignited.
• Insecticides, alcohol, paint thinner and similar chemicals should
never be used to clean the unit as they can cause flaking or
cloudiness to the cabinet finish.
• Never attempt to repair, disassemble or reconstruct the unit if
there seems to be a problem.
A serious electric shock could result if you ignore this
precautionary measure.
• If a problem occurs during operation (the sound is interrupted,
indicators fail to light up, smoke is detected, etc.) contact your
dealer or Authorized Service Center immediately.
• Disconnect the power supply if the unit will not be used for a long
time. Otherwise the operation life could be shortened.
Cautions on moving this unit
Before moving the changer to another location, be sure to
remove all discs from the slots and turn off the changer.

turned off, to protect it against damage in transport.
Therefore, always press POWER and make sure "OFF" appears
on the display before you unplug the changer.
Other cautions
Outside light or noise may sometimes cause the changer to
detect a disc when there isn't one. However, the changer always
correctly detects the disc when in the play mode no matter
what.
Do not leave the front panel open. Infiltrating dust or other
matter may lead to damage or malfunctions.

® Set the changer on a flat, level surface.
® Before connecting the changer to your audio system, make
sure that the power of the changer and all other system
components is turned off.
