Read this before attempting any
operations
<
As the unit may become warm during
operation, always leave sufficient space
around the unit for ventilation.
<
The voltage supplied to the unit should
match the voltage as printed on the rear
panel. If you are in any doubt regarding
this matter, consult an electrician.
<
Choose the installation location of your
unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct
sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also
avoid locations subject to vibrations and
excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture.
<
Do
not
place
the
unit
on
an
amplifier/receiver.
<
Do not open the cabinet as this might
result in damage to the circuitry or
electrical shock. If a foreign object should
get into the unit, contact your dealer or
service company.
<
When removing the power plug from the
wall outlet, always pull directly on the
plug, never yank the cord.
<
To keep the laser pickup clean, do not
touch it. Always close the disc
compartment lid when not in use.
<
Do not attempt to clean the unit with
chemical solvents as this might damage
the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
<
Keep this manual in a safe place for
future reference.
Before Using the Unit
DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT DURING
PLAYBACK
During playback, the disc rotates at high
speed. Do NOT lift or move the unit
during playback. Doing so may damage
the disc or the unit.
WHEN MOVING THIS UNIT
When moving or packing the unit, be
sure to remove the disc. Moving this unit
with the disc loaded may result in
damage to this unit.
Beware of condensation
When the unit (or a disc) is moved from a
cold to a warm place, or used after a
sudden temperature change, there is the
danger of condensation; vapor in the air
could
condense
on
the
internal
mechanism, making correct operation
erratic or impossible. To prevent this, or if
this occurs, leave the unit turned on for
one or two hours. The unit will stabilize
at the temperature of its surroundings.
Maintenance
If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe
with a soft cloth or use a diluted mild
liquid soap. Be sure to remove any excess
liquid completely. Do not use thinner,
benzine or alcohol as they may damage
the surface of the unit. Allow the surface
of the unit to dry completely before
using.
CAUTION
Ensure this product is not exposed to
dripping or splashing and that no object
filled with liquids, such as vases, is placed
on the product.
Do not install this equipment in a
confined space such as a book case or
similar unit. Allow adequate air circulation
around this product.
Disposal of your old appliance
1. When this crossed-out
wheeled bin symbol is
attached to a product it
means the product is
covered by the European
Directive 2002/96/EC.
2. All electrical and electronic products
should be disposed of separately from
the municipal waste stream via
designated
collection
facilities
appointed by the government or the
local authorities.
3. The correct disposal of your old
appliance will help prevent potential
negative
consequences
for
the

Discs which can be played on this unit:
· Conventional audio CDs bearing the
COMPACT DISC DIGITAL AUDIO logo
on the label:
· Properly finalized CD-R and CD-RW
discs
· MP3 CDs
Note:
<
Depending on the quality of the disc
and/or the condition of the recording,
some CD-R/CD-RW discs may not be
playable.
<
This player cannot play Windows Media-
formatted audio files.
(Windows Media is a trademark of
Microsoft Corporation.)
<
Copy-protected discs and other discs that
do not conform to the CD standard may
not play back correctly in this player. If
you use such discs in this unit, TEAC
Corporation and its subsidiaries cannot
be responsible for any consequences or
guarantee the quality of reproduction. If
you experience problems with such non-
standard discs, you should contact the
producers of the disc.
How to hold
the disc
<
Always place the disc on the disc tray
with the label side up. (Compact discs
can be played or recorded only on one
side.)
<
To remove a disc from its storage case,
press down on the center of the case and
lift the disc out, holding it carefully by
the edges.
<
Should the disc become dirty, wipe the
surface radially (from the center hole
outward towards the outer edge) with a
soft, dry cloth:
<
Never use such chemicals as record
sprays, antistatic sprays or fluid, benzine
or thinner to clean the discs. Such
chemicals will do irreparable damage to
the disc's plastic surface.
<
Discs should be returned to their cases
after use to avoid dust and scratches that
could cause the laser pickup to "skip."
<
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or
high humidity and temperature for
extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures will warp the disc.
<
Do not play any disc that is warped,
deformed or damaged.
Playing such discs may cause irreparable
harm to the playing mechanisms.
<
CD-R and CD-RW discs are more
sensitive to the effects of heat and
ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is
important that they are not stored in a
location where direct sunlight will fall on
them, and away from sources of heat
such as radiators or heat-generating
electrical devices.
<
Printable CD-R and CD-RW discs aren't
recommended, as the label side might be
sticky and damage the unit.
<
Do not stick papers or protective sheets
on the discs and do not use any
protective coating spray.
<
Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to
write the information on the label side.
Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped
pen, as this may cause damage to the
recorded side.
<
Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially
available CD stabilizers with this unit will
damage the mechanisms and cause them
to malfunction.
<
Do not use CDs with an irregular shape
(octagonal, heart shaped, business card
size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage
the unit:
<
If you are in any doubt as to the care and
handling of a CD-R/CD-RW disc, read the
precautions supplied with the disc, or
contact the disc manufacturer directly.
MP3 compatibility
<
File
names
of
MP3
should
be
alphanumeric characters. This unit cannot
display symbols and full-size or 2 bytes-
wide characters (such as Japanese,
Chinese, etc.) correctly. Also, be sure to

<
The disc must be finalized in order to
play.
<
The CD-ROM must be ISO 9660
compatible.
<
When more than 200 files or folders are
recorded on the disc, the unit might not
be able to play it correctly.
<
The file must be mono or stereo MPEG-1
Audio Layer 3 format, 44.1 or 48 kHz,
fixed bit-rate.
