INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Please read this manual carefully before operation.
PRECAUTIONS
ON PROTECTION AGAINST LASER ENERGY EXPOSURE
As the laser beam used in this compact disc player is harmful to the eyes, do not attempt
to disassemble the casing.
Stop operation immediately if any liquid or solid object should fall into the cabinet.
Do not put anything in the safety slot. If you do, the laser diode will be ON when the CD
door is still open.
If the unit is not to be used for a long period of time, make sure that all power sources
are disconnected from the unit. Remove all batteries from the battery compartment, and
unplug the AC-DC adapter from the wall outlet. Make it a practice to remove the AC-DC
adapter by grasping the main body and not by pulling the cord.
This unit employs a laser. The use of controls or adjustment or performance of proce-
dures other than those specified here may result in exposure to hazardous radiation.
ON PLACEMENT
Do not use the unit in places which are extremely hot, cold, dusty, or humid.
Place the unit on a flat and even surface.
Do not restrict the air flow of the unit by placing it in a place with poor ventilation, by
covering it with a cloth, or by placing it on a carpet.
ON CONDENSATION
When left in a heated room where it is warm and damp, water droplets or condensation
may form inside the unit.
When there is condensation inside the unit, the unit may not function normally.
Let the unit stand 1 to 2 hours before turning the power on, or gradually heat the room up
and dry the unit before use.
Should any trouble occur, remove the power source and refer servicing to qualified personnel.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12.
Grounding or Polarization: This product may be equipped with a
polarized alternating-current line plug that has one blade wider than
the other. This plug will only fit into the power outlet in one direction.
This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into
the outlet, try reversing the direction of the plug. If the plug should still
fail to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
13.
14.
Power-Cord Protection: Power supply cords should be routed so
that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and at the point which they exit from the
product.
Protective Attachment Plug: The product may be equipped with an
attachment plug with overload protection. This is a safety feature. See
the operating instructions for replacement or directions to reset the
protective device. If replacement of the plug is required, be sure the
service technician has used a replacement plug that has the same
overload protection as the original plug as specified by the manufac-
turer.
15.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an outside antenna is connected to
the product, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide
some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70 provides
information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and support-
ing structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge
unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the ground-
ing electrode (see figure).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
16.
17.
Lightning: For added protection for this product, unplug it from the
wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system during a light-
ning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods
of time. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning or
power-line surges.
Power Lines: An outside antenna system should not be located in
the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken
to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with
them might be fatal.
18.
19.
Overloading: Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or in-
tegral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
Object and Liquid Entry: Never push objects of any kind into this
product through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or shout-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
20.
21.
Servicing: Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening
or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Damage Requiring Service: Unplug this product from the wall outlet
and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the follow-
ing conditions: a) when the power-supply or plug is damaged; b) if
liquid has been spilled or if objects have fallen into the product; c) if
the product has been exposed to rain or water; d) if the product does
not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust
only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as
improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the
product to its normal operation; e) if the product has been dropped or
damaged in any way; f) when the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance—this indicates a need for service.
22.
23.
Replacement Parts: When replacement parts are required, be sure
that your service technician has used replacement parts specified by
the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other
hazards.
Safety Check: Upon completion of any service or repairs to this prod-
uct, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to ensure that
the product is in proper operating condition.

CD CARE & MAINTENANCE
Handling CDs
Hold a CD by its edges. Avoid touching the recorded side of the disc. To
remove a CD from its storage case, press down on the center retention
mechanism of the case and lift the disc out.
Cleaning CDs
Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe off any fingerprints and dusts from the play-
ing surface of the disc. Wipe in a straight line radially from the center
to the outside edge of the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will
not affect playback quality.
Never use chemicals such as record sprays, anti-static sprays,
benzene, or thinners to clean your CDs.
To reduce the risk of scratches, always put CDs back in their
case after use.
Do not subject CDs to prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, high
humidity, or high temperatures.
Do not place stickers or labels on either side of the CD.
Cleaning the CD Player Lens
A dirty lens can cause CD playback to skip. If the lens is very dirty, the
CD may not work at all. Unplug the power supply, open the CD door,
and clean the lens as follows:
For Dust or Dry Particles - use a camera lens brush/blower to
blow on the lens a few times. Then, wipe the lens gently with the
brush, and blow on the lens once more.
For Fingerprints - use a dry cotton swab to wipe the lens in a
straight line radially from the center to the outside edge.
