spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus

has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate nor-

mally, or has been dropped.

15. Damage Requiring Service

Unplug the apparatus from the wall outlet and refer servicing

to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

A. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,

B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the ap-

paratus,

C. If the apparatus has been exposed to rain or water,

D. If the apparatus does not operate normally by following the

operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME,

READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.

AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that

the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on

the unit's rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).

Setting the STANDBY/ON switch to STANDBY does not fully

shutdown the unit. If you do not intend to use the unit for an

extended period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.

For British models

Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord

of this unit should be performed only by qualified service personnel.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the

following code:

Blue:

Neutral

Brown: Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may

not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals

in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal

which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.

The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the termi-

nal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

IMPORTANT

The plug is fitted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse needs to be

replaced, the replacement fuse must approved by ASTA or BSI to

BS1362 and have the same ampere rating as that indicated on the

plug. Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the

fuse.

If the power cord's plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, cut if

off and fit a suitable plug. Fit a suitable fuse in the plug.

8. Moisture Condensation

Moisture condensation may damage this unit.

Read the following carefully:

Moisture may condense on the lens of the optical pickup, one of

the most important parts inside this unit.

· Moisture condensation can occur in the following situations:

The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm place.

A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air conditioner is

hitting the unit.

In the summer, when this unit is moved from an air condi-

tioned room to a hot and humid place.

The unit is used in a humid place.

· Do not use this unit when there's the possibility of moisture

condensation occurring. Doing so may damage your discs

and certain parts inside this unit.

If condensation does occur, remove all discs and leave this unit

turned on for two to three hours. By this time, the unit will have

warmed up and any condensation will have evaporated.

Features

Memory Preservation

This unit does not require memory preservation batteries. A built-

in memory power back-up system preserves the contents of the

memory during power failures and even when the unit is un-

plugged. The unit must be plugged in order to charge the back-up

system.

The memory preservation period after the unit has been unplugged

varies depending on climate and placement of the unit. On the

average, memory contents are protected over a period of a few

weeks after the last time the unit has been unplugged. This pe-

riod is shorter when the unit is exposed to a highly humid cli-

mate.

Precautions

This unit contains a semiconductor laser system and is classified as

a "CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT". So, to use this model properly,

read this Instruction Manual carefully. In case of any trouble, please

contact the store where you purchased the unit.

To prevent being exposed to the laser beam, do not try to open the

enclosure.

DANGER:

VISIBLE AND/OR INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN

OPEN AND INTERLOCK FAILED OR DEFEATED. DO NOT

STARE INTO BEAM.

CAUTION:

THIS PRODUCT UTILIZES A LASER. USE OF CONTROLS OR

ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES

OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN

HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE.

The label on the right is applied on the

right side of the unit.

1. This unit is a CLASS 1 LASER

PRODUCT and employs a laser in-

side the cabinet.

2. To prevent the laser from being exposed, do not remove the cover.

Refer servicing to qualified personnel.

* In catalogs and on packaging, the letter added to the end of the

product name indicates the color of the CR-305FX. Specifica-

tions and operation are the same regardless of color.

Installing the remote controller batteries

1. Remove the battery compartment cover, as shown.

2. Insert two AAA (R03)-size batteries into the battery compart-

ment. Carefully follow the polarity diagram (positive (+) and

negative () symbols) inside the battery compartment.

3. After batteries are installed and seated correctly, replace the com-

partment cover.

Notes

· Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or different kinds of

batteries.

· To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote controller

is not to be used for a long time.

· Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from cor-

rosion. If the remote controller doesn't operate smoothly, replace

both the batteries at the same time.

Using the remote controller

Point the remote controller toward the remote control sensor.

Notes

· Place the unit away from strong light such as direct sunlight or

inverted fluorescent light which can prevent proper operation of

the remote controller.

· Using another remote controller of the same type in the same

room or using the unit near equipment which uses infrared rays

may cause operational interference.

· Do not put any object such as a book on the remote controller.

The buttons of the remote controller may be pressed by mistake

and drain the batteries.

· Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass. Plac-

ing the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote con-

troller operation.

· If there is any obstacle between the remote controller and the

remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate.
