PRECAUTIONS
� When the set is not going to be used for a long time, unplug the AC lead and remove the batteries. � If a CD player is being operated while you are receiving a radio broadcast, you may hear a noise with the broadcast. If so, turn the operative switch of the CD player [OFF]. � Do not leave exhausted batteries in the compartment as they will leak and cause corrosion and damage. � Never open the covers or touch the inside or insert a metal object. Any of these operations could cause an electric shock or a fault. � When thunder starts, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. If the set is being used outdoors, shorten the antenna and stop using the set. � Shorten the antenna when carrying the set: If the set is carried with the antenna extended, it could break. � Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, extreme heat, and high humidity, or place it near heat sources, the sea, or in a sandy or dusty place. � Do not clean the cabinet of the set with strong detergents or solvents as these could damage the surface finish. � We discourage the use of C-120 cassette tapes as they tend to break or jam the device. � The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing. � Discs, which can be played on this player, have the following mark on them: � Do not move the set suddenly from a very cold room into a warm room. When a chilled CD player is moved suddenly to a warm location, moisture condensation may form on the pick-up lens, preventing proper operation. In this case, wait 1 to 2 hours before resuming play. � During playback, if the CD player is subjected to a sudden shock or jolt, some noise may be produced, this is not a malfunction. � Do not place any objects in the disc compartment, it any cause damage to the mechanism. � Whenever moving the set, first, be sure to remove the disc from it.

Wipe any moisture off with a soft, dry cloth, and be sure discs are fully dry before using. � Handle the discs carefully so that fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the discs. To clean off, use a soft cloth. Do not use a hard cloth since these will mark the disc. � If you switch on or off a fluorescent lamp which is placed near the set, you may hear some interference noise; this is not a malfunction. � Please do not use compact discs with cellophone tapes or with labels attached, or those CD with pealed off stains, such as rental CD.
