SAFETY FIRST
When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or a shelf, make sure
that it has sufficient space on all sides to allow for ventilation
(10 cm or more on both sides, on top and at the rear).
When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be
considered and the local rules or laws governing the disposal of
these batteries must be followed strictly.
Failure to heed the following precautions may result in
damage to the unit, remote control or disc.
1. DO NOT place the unit --
-- in an environment prone to extreme temperatures or
humidity.
-- in direct sunlight.
-- in a dusty environment.
-- in an environment where strong magnetic fields are
generated.
-- on a surface that is unstable or subject to vibration.
2. DO NOT block the unit's ventilation openings or holes.
(If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper
or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.)
3. DO NOT place heavy objects on the unit or remote control.
4. DO NOT place anything which might spill on top of the unit
or remote control.
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire or
electric shock may be caused.)
5. DO NOT expose the apparatus to dripping or splashing.
6. DO NOT use this equipment in a bathroom or places with

candles, on the apparatus.
8. AVOID violent shocks to the unit during transport.

filled with cold liquid. In conditions where condensation may occur,
disconnect the unit's power plug from the wall and keep it
disconnected for a few hours to let the moisture dry, then turn on
the unit.
