BREAK-IN TIME

As with all audio electronic products, the ultimate sonic

character of the CD 1 will not be realized until and unless the

unit receives a minimum of approximately 70 hours 

of signal break-in time (i.e. the CD 1 is on and producing an

output signal).

PLACEMENT FOR PROPER VENTILATION

Allow at least 4” (15 cm) of clear space above the CD 1 chassis

for proper ventilation, making sure the air vent slots in the

chassis cover remain unobstructed. Also, be sure that the

CD 1 is placed on a secure, hard and level surface (not on

carpet).

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Ventilation - Although your CD 1 generates only nominal heat

in use, be sure that the ventilation slots in the top cover have

at least 4” of unobstructed air space above them.

2. Water and Moisture - This product should not be used near

water. To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this

product to rain or moisture.

3. Heat - This product should be situated away from heat

sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other

appliances which produce heat.

4. Power Sources - This product should be connected to an

AC power source of the proper rated voltage. The original

shipping container will stipulate the AC voltage this unit can

operate with correctly.

5. Cleaning - A regular dusting with a soft, non-abrasive cloth

will generally keep the finish of the faceplate and chassis looking

like new. At no time should you allow any liquid to come in

contact with the CD 1; it may run into the electronic circuitry

and cause damage which will not be covered under your

warranty.

6. Servicing - Do not open this product. No user serviceable parts

inside. Refer servicing to an authorized service technician.

7. Non-Use Periods - The power cord of this product should

be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for an extended

period of time.

8. Do not remove the CD 1 cover while the unit is “on”, or 

connected to an AC power source. Cover screws could fall

through the ventilation slots and cause electrical damage to

the CD 1. The player may leak invisible laser radiation if the

cover is removed. Avoid direct exposure to the laser beam.
