IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
Handling of the disc trays and discs  
Not doing the following will cause damage to the unit.  
Removing the power plug  
• Press [y/I, POWER] to turn off the unit and remove the power plug only after all the displays have disappeared.  
Tray caution  
Inserting a disc  
• Always press [0, OPEN/CLOSE] to insert or remove a disc.  
• Do not push or pull out the tray by hand as this will cause an  
accident.  
• Place the disc correctly label-up as shown in the  
diagram.  
• Insert one disc into the tray.  
Placement of speakers  
Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right  
channel orientation is necessary.  
Use only the supplied speakers.  
The combination of the main unit and speakers provide the  
best sound. Using other speakers can damage the unit and  
sound quality will be negatively affected.  
Place the  
subwoofer on the  
floor or a sturdy  
shelf so that it will  
not cause vibration.  
Note:  
• Keep your speakers at least 10mm (13/32˝) away from the system for  
proper ventilation.  
• These speakers do not have magnetic shielding. Do not place  
them near televisions, personal computers or other devices easily  
influenced by magnetism.  
• You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you  
play sound at high levels over extended periods.  
• Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.  
– When playing distorted sound.  
– When adjusting the sound quality.  
Caution  
Use the speakers only with the  
recommended system. Failure to  
do so can damage the amplifier and  
speakers, and can cause fire. Consult  
a qualified service person if damage  
occurs or if a sudden change in  
performance is apparent.

en una estantería fuerte  
para que no cause  
vibración.  
• Reduzca el volumen para evitar daños en los casos  
siguientes.  
– Cuando reproduzca sonido distorsionado.
