Dear Customer
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you have just purchased is only the start of your musical
enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers.
This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the
most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear
without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound
can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sounds and "normal"
can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level
BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you
listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime.
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage
from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late ,this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries
Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Caring for Compact Discs
• Treat the compact disc carefully. Handle the compact disc only by its
edges. Never allow your fingers to come in contact with the shiny,
unprinted side of the compact disc.
• Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers, etc. to the compact disc label.
• Clean the compact disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never
use detergents or abrasive cleaners to clean the compact disc. If
necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.
• If a compact disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the compact disc,it
is probably dirty or damaged (scratched).
• When cleaning the compact disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of the compact disc to the outer
edge of the compact disc. Never wipe in circular motions.
• Compact discs should be stored in their cases after each use to avoid damage.
• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, high temperatures, or dust, etc.
Prolonged exposure or extreme temperatures can warp the compact disc.
• Do not stick or write anything on either side of the compact disc. Sharp writing instruments, or the ink
may damage the surface.
Cleaning the unit
• To prevent fire of shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning.
• The finish on your unit may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution
when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts.
