Warranty Conditions

The guarantee period is two years from the date of purchase. We recommend asking your dealer to complete the guarantee certificate and to keep it safe. The guarantee is valid only for appliances used correctly.

Maintenance

Before cleaning, switch off your CD player (using button 5). Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the appliance. Never use acetone, white spirit, ammonia, or any product containing abrasive agents. Never attempt to clean the inside of the appliance.

Cautions

Do not make any connections while the device is turned on.
Install your appliance in a dry, well-ventilated area away from any heat source.
Ensure nothing is placed on top of your CD player.
Avoid short circuits.
In case of a problem, never attempt to repair, disassemble, or rebuild the device yourself, as this may cause severe electric shock.
Avoid operating your CD player near a tuner, as this may interfere with the tuner's HF reception.

Advises

To optimize the performance of your device, switch it on at least half an hour before listening. This allows the output stages to reach their ideal working temperature. Your device will provide optimal listening quality after this warm-up period.
Between uses, it is preferable to leave the device in standby mode to maintain its optimum temperature.
At night or when leaving your home, it is best to turn off the device using the main switch.
To optimize sound quality, we recommend choosing good-quality connection cords. Consult your specialist dealer for advice.
