About the DTS multi-channel audio format
The DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD,
LD and DVD software. DTS is a strictly digital format
and can not be decoded inside most CD, LD or DVD
players. For this reason, if you attempt to listen to DTS
encoded software through the analog output of your
new CD player, you will experience digital noise. This
noise can be quite loud if the analog output is con-
nected directly to a high power amplification system.
Proper precautions should be taken to avoid this situ-
ation. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround playback, an ex-
ternal 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround decoder sys-
tem must be connected to the digital output (S/PDIF,
AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the CD player.

touch the playing surface.
Label side
Playing side
Sticker
÷ Do not attach paper or tape to either the
playing side or the label side of compact
discs.
÷ The paste left on the label surface after a
sticker has been peeled off is a factor
which may cause malfunction. If the sur-
face is sticky due to remaining paste, be
sure to clean it with alcohole before use.
Sticky paste
Cleaning
If fingerprints or foreign matter become
attached to the disc, lightly wipe the disc
with a soft cotton cloth (or similar) from the
center of the disc outwards in a radial man-
ner.
Storage
When a disc is not to be played for a long
period of time, remove it from the CD player
and store it in its case.
Never play a cracked or warped disc
During playback, the disc rotates at high speed in the player.
Therefore, to avoid danger, never use a cracked or deformed disc or a
disc repaired with tape or adhesive agent.
Please do not use discs which are not round because they may cause a
malfunction.
CD accessories
The CD accessories (stabilizer, protection sheet, protection ring, etc.)
which are marketed for improving the sound quality or protecting discs
as well as the disc cleaner should not be used with this system because
they may cause malfunction.

case, leave the unit for a few hours with the power left ON, and
restart the operation after the condensation has dried up.
Be specially cautious against condensation in a following cir-
cumstance:
When this unit is carried from a place to another across a large differ-
ence in temperature, when the humidity in the room where this unit
is installed increases, etc.
