player at full volume can

damage the user’s ear.

Notes on CD-R/RW Discs

to either side (recordable or
labeled side) of a CD-R/RW

disc as this may result in the

unit malfunctioning.

• To avoid damages to the

CD-R/RW disc, do not open

the disc compartment door

while the disc is being read.

• Do not load an unrecorded

CD-R/RW disc into the unit.
This may take a longer time to

read the disc.

• Playback capability for

CD-RW discs may vary due to

variations in the quality of the

CD-RW disc and the recorder

used to create the disc.

Please respect the

environment !

Before throwing any batteries
away, consult your distributor who

may be able to take them back for
specific recycling.
