To prevent this, if you are going to  
use the player in a condition where  
condensation could occur, you  
should leave the player for 1 or 2  
hours after plugging it into an AC  
outlet depending on the amount of  
condensation. If this is done, the  
player will stabilize at the tempera-  
ture of its surroundings.

Beware of Condensation  
n
When using the CD Player  
When the player (or a CD) is  
moved from a cold to a warm place  
or is used after a sudden tempera-  
ture change, there is a danger of  
condensation. Water vapor in the air  
could condense on the mechanism  
or the laser pickup. If droplets of  
water form on these parts, correct  
playback will be impossible  
because the laser cannot read the  
information from the disc correctly.  
option, be sure not to handle CDs  
with dirty or oily fingers. Never  
insert a disc that has a crack on the  
surface.  
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to  
alert user to the presence of important operating and maintenance  
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.  
CAUTION:  
FOR COMPACT DISC UNITS ONLY: INVISIBLE LASER
