• Before turning the power switch on
Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are
no problems with the connection cables.
• When leaving home for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the
power cord from the power outlet.
• Proper ventilation
If the unit is left in a room full of the smoke from cigarettes, etc., for
long periods of time, the surface of the optical pickup may get dirty,
preventing it from receiving the signals properly.
• About condensation
If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside
of the unit and its surroundings, condensation may form on parts
inside the unit, causing the unit to fail to operate properly.
If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power off
and wait until there is little difference in temperature before using
the unit.
• Cautions on using mobile phones
Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If that
occurs, move the mobile phone away from the unit when it is in
use.
