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 tempera-
ture of its surroundings.

When using the CD Player
When the player (or a CD) is
moved from a cold to a warm place
or is used after a sudden tempera-
ture change, there is a 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.
option, be sure not to handle CDs
with dirty or oily fingers. Never
insert a disc that has a crack on the
surface.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert user to the presence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
CAUTION:

outlet.
