    FCC information This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. 
    Operation is subject to the following two 
    conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful 
    interference, and (2) This device must accept any 
    interference received including interference which 
    may cause undesired operation.
    This equipment has been tested and found to 
    comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,

    are designed to provide reasonable protection 
    against harmful interference in a residential 
    installation.  This equipment generates, uses and 
    can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

    guarantee that interference will not occur in a 
    particular installation.  
    If this equipment does cause harmful interference 
    to radio or television reception, which can be 
    determined by turning the equipment off and on, 
    the user is encouraged to try to correct the 
    interference by one or more of the following 
    measures:
    •  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
    •  Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
    •  Connect the equipment into an outlet on  a circuit different from that to which the 
    receiver is connected.
    •  Consult the dealer or an experienced  radio / TV technician for help.

    Safety information

    Important battery precautions•  Any battery may present a risk of fire, explosion, or chemical burn if abused. Do not try to charge 
    a battery that is not intended to be recharged, 
    do not incinerate, and do not puncture.
    •  Non-rechargeable batteries, such as alkaline  batteries, may leak if left in your product for a 
    long period of time. Remove the batteries from 
    the product if you are not going to use it for a 
    month or more.
    •  If your product uses more than one battery, do  not mix types and make sure they are inserted 
    correctly. Mixing types or inserting incorrectly 
    may cause them to leak.
    •  Discard any leaky or deformed battery  immediately. They may cause skin burns or 
    other personal injury.
    •  Please help to protect the environment by  recycling or disposing of batteries according to 
    federal, state, and local regulations.
    Electrostatic disturbanceThis unit may temporarily cease to function if 
    subjected to electrostatic disturbance. To resume 
    normal operation, you may reset the player by 
    removing and re-installing the battery.
    Precautions for the player
    •  Do not use the unit immediately after transportation from a cold place to a warm 
    place; condensation problems may result.
    •   Avoid shock to the unit.
    •   Do not store the unit near fire, places with high  temperature or in direct sunlight. Exposure to 
    direct sunlight or extreme heat (such as inside a 
    parked car) may cause damage or malfunction.
    •  Do not expose to rain or moisture.
    •   Do not operate or store unit in places with  frequent static electricity or electrical noise (e.g. 
    speaker, TV set).
    •   Clean the unit with a soft cloth or a damp  chamois leather. Never use solvents.
    •   The unit must only be opened by qualified  personnel.
    Headset safety To use a headset safely, please keep the following in 
    mind:
    •  Do not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous 
    extended play.
    •  If you experience ringing in your ears, turn down  the volume or stop using the headset.
    •  Do not use a headset while driving a motorized  vehicle or riding a bike. It may cause a traffic 
    hazard and is illegal in many areas.
    •  Even if your headset is an open-air type designed  to let you hear outside sounds, don’t turn up the 
    volume so high that can’t hear sounds around 
    you.

    Some of the following information may not apply to 
    your particular product; however, as with any 
    electronic product, precautions should be observed 
    during handling and use.
    •  Read these instructions. 
    •  Keep these instructions. 
    •  Heed all warnings. 
    •  Follow all instructions. 
    •  Do not use this apparatus near water. 
    •  Clean only with dry cloth.

    •  Do not install near any heat sources such as  radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other 
    apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce 
    heat. 
    •  Do not defeat the safety purpose of the  polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized 
    plug has two blades with one wider than the 
    other. A grounding type plug has two blades 
    and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or 
    the third prong is provided for your safety. If the 
    provided plug does not fit into your outlet, 
    consult an electrician for replacement of the 
    obsolete outlet. 
    •  Protect the power cord from being walked on or  pinched particularly at plugs, convenience 
    receptacles, and the point where they exit from 
    the apparatus. 
    •  Only use attachments/accessories specified by  the manufacturer. 
    •  Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or  table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with 
    the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution 
    when moving the cart/apparatus combination 
    to avoid injury from tip-over. 
    •  Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms  or when unused for long periods of time.  •  Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. 
    Servicing is required when the apparatus has 
    been damaged in any way, such as power-
    supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been 
    spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, 
    the apparatus has been exposed to rain or 
    moisture, does not operate normally, or has 
    been dropped. 
    •  ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION
    •  Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or  splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such 
    as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. 
    •  Always leave sufficient space around the  product for ventilation. Do not place product in 
    or on a bed, rug, in a bookcase or cabinet that 
    may prevent air flow through vent openings.
    •  Do not place lighted candles, cigarettes, cigars,  etc. on the product. 
    •  Connect power cord only to AC power source as  marked on the product. 
    •  Care should be taken so that objects do not fall  into the product. 
    •  Do not attempt to disassemble the cabinet. This  product does not contain customer serviceable 
    components. 
    •  IF YOUR PRODUCT OPERATES ON BATTERIES,  adhere to the following precautions: 
    A.  Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a  different battery type, if inserted incorrectly, or if 
    all batteries are not replaced at the same time. 
    B.  Any battery may leak electrolyte or explode if  disposed of in fire or an attempt is made to 
    charge a battery not intended to be recharged. 
    C.  Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking  batteries can cause skin burns or other personal 
    injury. When discarding batteries, be sure to 
    dispose of them in the proper manner, 
    according to your state/provincial and local 
    regulations.
