GENERAL INFORMATION  
SAFETY INFORMATION  
• If the system is brought directly from a  
cold to a warm location, or is placed in a  
very damp room, moisture may  
condense on the lens of the CD unit  
inside the system. Should this occur, the  
CD player will not operate normally.  
Leave the power on for about one hour  
with no disc in the system until normal  
playback is possible.  
• Electrostatic discharge may cause  
unexpected problems. See whether  
these problems disappear if you unplug  
the AC power cord and plug it in again  
after a few seconds.

The typeplate (which contains the  
serial number) is located at the rear  
of the system.  
Recording is permissible if  
copyright or other rights of third  
parties are not infringed.  
This device complies with the  
Federal Communications  
Commission (FCC) rules, part 15 and  
with 21 CFR 1040.10. Operation is  
subjected to the following two  
conditions:  
– This device may not cause  
harmful interference, and  
– This device must accept any  
interference received, including  
interference that may cause  
undesired operation.  
Safety Information  
• Before operating the system, check that  
the operating voltage indicated on the  
typeplate (or the voltage indication  
beside the voltage selector) of your  
system is identical with the voltage of  
your local power supply. If not, please  
consult your dealer. The typeplate is  
located at the rear of your system.  
• When the system is switched on, do not  
move it around.  
To disconnect the system from the  
power supply completely, remove  
the AC power plug from the wall  
socket.  
Environmental Information  
• Place the system on a solid base (e.g. a  
cabinet).  
All unnecessary packaging has been  
omitted. We have tried to make the  
packaging easy to separate into three  
materials: cardboard (box), polystyrene  
foam (buffer) and polyethylene (bags,  
protective foam sheet).  
• Place the system in a location with  
adequate ventilation to prevent internal  
heat build-up in your system.  
• The system incorporates a built-in  
safety feature that prevents over  
heating.  
• Do not expose the system to excessive  
moisture, rain, sand or heat sources.  
• Under no circumstances should you  
repair the system yourself, as this will  
invalidate the warranty!  
Your system consists of materials which  
can be recycled and reused if disassembled  
by a specialized company. Please observe  
the local regulations regarding the disposal  
of packaging materials, exhausted  
batteries and old equipment.

Digital recordings (optical or coaxial) give  
the best performance in audio and  
usability (e.g. auto-track). (The digital  
optical connection is less sensitive to  
external disturbances). If your equipment  
does not offer digital connections, the high  
quality Analog-Digital-Convertor of your CD  
recorder will ensure very good audio  
performance when recordings are made  
from the analog input.
