An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the appliance
and cart combination to overturn.
10. Ventilation Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance and to
protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the
appliance on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. The appliance
should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or
rack unless proper ventilation is provided. There should be free space
of at least 5 cm and an opening behind the appliance.
11. Power Sources The appliance should be operated only from the
type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not
sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance
dealer or local power company.
12. Grounding or Polarization The appliance may be equipped with
a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one
way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully
into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat
the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
13. Power-Cord Protection Power-supply cords should be routed so
that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the

Do not touch the unit with wet hands
Do not handle the unit or power cord when your hands are wet or
damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take the unit to an
authorized service center for inspection.
7. Location of the unit
· Place the unit in a well-ventilated location.
Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of the
unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation is
blocked, the unit may overheat and malfunction.
· Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or heating units as the unit's
internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the pickup.
· Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by
vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit on
or above one of the speakers.
· Be sure the unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it on
its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.
· When you place the unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playback
picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In this
case, place the unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.
8. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and the
cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a
weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and wipe
off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth.
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents
or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove the panel
lettering.
9. Notes on Handling
· When shipping the unit, use the original shipping carton and
packing materials. For maximum protection, repack the unit as it
was originally packed at the factory.
· Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near the unit. Do
not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a
long time. They will leave marks on the finish.
· The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm after a
long period of use. This is not a malfunction.
· When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the disc and turn off
the power.
· If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may not
function properly in the future. Turn on and use the unit
occasionally.
10. To Obtain a Clear Picture
The unit is a high technology, precision device. If the optical pick-up
lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality
becomes poor. To obtain a clear picture, we recommend regular
inspection and maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every
1,000 hours of use depending on the operating environment. For
details, contact your nearest dealer.
11. Notes on Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation damages the unit.
Please read the following carefully.
· What is moisture condensation?
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold
drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on the outside
of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on the optical
pick-up lens inside the unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of
the unit.
· Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.
When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a warm
place.
When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on the
heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner
directly hits the unit.
In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid place just
after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.
When you use the unit in a humid place.
· Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may
occur.
If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs and
internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord of the unit
to the wall outlet, turn on the unit, and leave it for two or three
hours. After a few hours, the unit will have warmed up and
evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to the wall outlet
and moisture condensation will seldom occur.
