Slim 3-CD Stereo Instructions/ Warranty SA248
Instructions Slim 3-CD Stereo FCC Information For CD player section. 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 that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by manufacturer may void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
Do not use in areas where extremes in temperature occur (below 40°F/5°C or exceeding 95°F/35°C), or where unit may be exposed to direct sunlight. Because of the CD player’s extremely low noise and wide dynamic range, there is a tendency to turn the volume on the amplifier higher than necessary. Doing so may produce an excessively high output from the amplifier, which can cause damage to the speakers.
