On safety•The unit is not disconnected from the AC
power source (mains) as long as it isconnected to the wall outlet, even if theunit itself has been turned off.
•Unplug the system from the AC poweroutlet if it is not to be used for anextended period of time. To disconnectthe AC power cord, pull it out by theplug. Never pull the cord itself.
•Should any solid object or liquid fall intothe component, unplug the stereo systemand have the component checked byqualified personnel before operating itany further.
•AC power cord must be changed only atthe qualified service shop.
On installationPlace the stereo system in a location withadequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the stereo system.Do not place the unit in an inclinedposition.Do not place the unit in locations whereit is:- Extremely hot or cold- Dusty or dirty- Very humid- Vibrating- Subject to direct sunlight
On condensation in the CD playercomponentIf the system is brought directly from a coldto a warm location, or is placed in a verydamp room, moisture may condense on thelens inside the CD player. Should thisoccur, the CD player will not operate.Remove the CD and leave the systemturned on for about an hour until themoisture evaporates.

Maintenance
To clean the tape heads and tapepathContaminated tape heads cause poorrecording or sound drop-out in playback.We recommend cleaning after every10 hours of operation.
Open the tape compartment and wipe theheads, the pinch rollers and the capstanswith a cleaning swab slightly moistenedwith cleaning fluid or alcohol. Wipe theparts shown below:
Insert a tape when the areas cleaned arecompletely dry.
To demagnetize the tape headsAfter 20 to 30 hours of use, enough residualmagnetism will have built up on the headsto begin to cause loss of high frequenciesand hiss. At this time, demagnetize theheads and all metal parts in the tape pathwith a commercially available tape headdemagnetizer. Refer to the instructions ofthe demagnetizer.
To clean the cabinetUse a soft cloth slightly moistened withmild detergent solution.
To clean the CDWhen a CD is dirty, clean it with a cleaningcloth. Wipe the CD from the center out.
Notes on CD•Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,or antistatic spray intended for vinyl LPs.
•If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints onthe CD, it may cause a tracking error.
