too cold; between 5°C and 35°C.
· Leave sufficient distance between the system and the TV.
· Do not use the system in a place subject to vibration.
Power cord
· Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
· A small amount of power is always consumed while the
power cord is connected to the wall outlet.
· When unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet,

because it may damage the system.
Note about copyright laws
Check the copyright laws in your country before recording
from the discs. Recording of copyrighted material may
infringe copyright laws.
