THIS SYSTEM IS PRESET AT 220V FROM  
THE FACTORY. FOR COUNTRIESTHAT  
OPERATE AT 110V-127V, PLEASE ADJUST  
TO 110V-127V BEFOREYOU SWITCH ON  
THE SYSTEM.  
G
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.  
G
G
Place the system on a flat, hard and stable  
surface.  
Environmental Information  
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. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)  
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit  
and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side.  
G
G
Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to  
excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources  
caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.  
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 disc  
unit inside the system. Should this occur, the CD  
player would not operate normally. Leave the  
power on for about one hour with no disc in the  
system until normal playback is possible.  
The mechanical parts of the set contain self-  
lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or  
lubricated.  
Your system consists of materials which can be  
recycled and reused if disassembled by a  
specialised company. Please observe the local  
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging  
materials, exhausted batteries and old  
equipment.
