Note:
For security reasons, a numbered ID card is provided with this unit, and the same ID number is
imprinted on the unit's chassis. Keep the card in a safe place, as it will help the authorities to
identify your unit if stolen.
CAUTION on Volume Setting
CDs and MDs produce very little noise compared with other sources. If the volume level is adjusted
for the tuner, for example, the speakers may be damaged by the sudden increase in the output level.
Therefore, lower the volume before playing a disc and adjust it as required during playback.
