If you are in any doubt regarding this matter, consult an electrician. < Choose 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. < Do not place the unit on an amplifier/receiver or any other electronic device that generates heat. < Do not open the sealed 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 or service agency. < When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord. < To keep the laser pickup clean, do not touch it, and always close the disc tray. < Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth. < Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference. DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT DURING PLAYBACK During playback, the disc rotates at high speed. Do NOT lift or move the unit during playback. Doing so may damage the disc or the record. WHEN MOVING THIS UNIT When changing places of installation or packing the unit for moving, be sure to remove the disc and the record. Moving this unit with the disc or the record loaded may result in damage to this unit. If the unit is to be packed and moved a large distance, it is also advisable to tighten the turntable transport locking screw. See page 12 for instructions. Beware of condensation When the unit (or a disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the internal mechanism, making correct operation erratic or impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the unit for one or two hours with the power turned on. The unit will stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings. Maintenance Always keep the turntable clean. If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or use diluted mild liquid soap. Be sure to remove any excess completely. Do not use thinner, benzine or alcohol as they may damage the surface of the unit. Allow the surface of the unit to dry completely before using CAUTION Do not expose this unit to liquids of any kind. Keep any objects containing liquids such as vases, water glasses, potted plants, et cetera off the top of this unit. Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a book-case or similar unit. 4 Discs Discs which can be played on this unit: · Conventional audio CDs bearing the CD-DA logo on the label: < Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc's plastic surface. < Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid dust and scratches that could cause the laser pickup to "skip." < Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures will warp the disc. < CD-R discs are more sensitive to the effects of heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important that they are not stored in a location where direct sunlight will fall on them, and which is away from sources of heat such as radiators or heat-generating electrical devices. ENGLISH ? · Properly finalized CD-R discs Note: < Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the condition of the recording, some CD-R discs may not be playable. < CD-RW discs cannot be played on this unit. < Copy-protected discs and other discs which do not conform to the CD standard may not play back correctly in this player. If you use such discs in this unit, TEAC Corporation and its subsidiaries cannot be responsible for any consequences or guarantee the quality of reproduction. If you experience problems with such non-standard discs, you should contact the producers of the disc. < Printable CD-R discs aren't recommended, as the label side might be sticky and damage the unit. < D ...
