To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects
filled with liquids, such as vases, on the appliance.

Precautions
On safety
· As the laser beam used in the CD player section is
harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble
the casing. Refer servicing to qualified personnel
only.
· Should any solid object or liquid fall into the player,
unplug the player, and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
· Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square,
star) cannot be played on this player. Attempting to
do so may damage the player. Do not use such discs.
On power sources
· For AC operation, use the supplied AC power cord;
do not use any other type.
· The player is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.
· Unplug the player from the wall outlet when it is not to
be used for an extended period of time.
· For battery operation, use six size D (R20) batteries.
· When the batteries are not to be used, remove them
to avoid damage that can be caused by battery
leakage or corrosion.
· Do not mix different types of batteries or old batteries
with new ones.
· Never Recharge the batteries, apply heat to them or
take them apart.
· The nameplate indicating operating voltage, power
consumption, etc. is located at the bottom.
On placement
· Do not leave the player in a location near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or mechanical shock.
· Do not place the player on an inclined or unstable
place.
· Do not place anything within 10 mm of the side of the
cabinet. The ventilation holes must be unobstructed
for the player to operate properly and prolong the life
of its components.
· If the player is left in a car parked in the sun, be sure
to choose a location in the car where the player will
not be subjected to the direct rays of the sun.
· Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep
personal credit cards using magnetic coding or
spring-wound watches away from the player to
prevent possible damage from the magnet.

On operation
· If the player is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture
may condense on the lens inside the CD player
section. Should this occur, the player will not operate
properly. In this case, remove the CD and wait about
an hour for the moisture to evaporate.
· If the player has not been used for a long time, set it
in the playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes
before inserting a cassette.
Notes on CD
· Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the CD from the center out.
· Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray
intended for LPs.
· Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car
parked in direct sunlight as there can be a
considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
· Do not stick paper or sticker on the CD, nor scratch
the surface of the CD.
· After playing, store the CD in its case.
If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints on the CD, it
may cause tracking error.
Notes on Cassettes
· Break off the cassette tab from side A or B to prevent
accidental recording. If you want to reuse the tape for
recording, cover the broken tab with adhesive tape.
· The use of a cassette with more than 90 minutes of
play time is not recommended except for long,
continuous recording or playback.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your
player, please consult your nearest Aiwa dealer.
