If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions. 12) Grounding or Polarization — This product 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 product. 14) Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

– 4– This unit has been designed specifically for reproduction of compact discs bearing the D mark. No other discs can be reproduced. OAlways place the compact disc in the disc tray with the label facing upward. (Compact discs can be played only on one side.) OTo remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges. How to remove the disc How to hold the disc OFingermarks and dust should be carefully wiped off the discs recorded surface with a soft cloth. Wipe radially ONever use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or fluid, benzine or thinner to clean compact discs. Such chemicals will do irreparable damage to the discs plastic surface. ODiscs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid serious scratches that could cause the laser pickup to skip. ODo not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc. ODo not stick paper or write anything with a ballpoint pen on the surface of the label side. Before Use Handling the Discs IMPORTANT (for U.K. Customers) DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment.If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer. If nonetheless the mains plug is cut of f,remove the fuse anddispose of the plugimmediately, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply. If this product is not provided with a mains plug, or one has to be fitted, then follow the instructions given below: IMPORTANT. DO NOTmake any connection to the larger terminal which is marked with the letter E or by the safety earth symbol ©or coloured GREEN or GREEN-and-YELLOW. The wires in the mains lead on this product are coloured in accordance with the following code: BLUE: NEUTRAL BROWN: LIVE As these colours 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 terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED. When r eplacing the fuse only acorrectly rated approved type should be used and be sure to re-fit the fuse cover. IF IN DOUBT — CONSULT A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN. OChoose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep away from such sources that hum, such as transformers or motors. ODo not open the cabinet as this might result in damage to the circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into the set, contact your dealer. OBe sure not to handle discs with dirty fingers. Never insert a disc which has a crack on the surface. OWhen removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord. OTo keep the laser-pickup clean, do not touch it, and do not forget to close the disc tray. ODo not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth. OKeep this manual in a safe place for future reference. Read This Before Operating Beware of condensation When the player (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place or used after a sudden temperature change, there is the danger of condensation. Water vapor in the air could condense on the mechanism or the laser pickup. If droplets of water form on these parts, correct playback will be impossible because the laser cannot read the information from the disc correctly. To prevent this, if you are going to use the player in a condition where condensation could occur, you should leave the player for 1 or 2 hours after plugging it into an AC outlet depending on the amount of condensation. If this is done, the player will stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings.
