On power sources  
• The player is not disconnected from the AC  
power source (mains) as long as it is connected to  
the wall outlet, even if the player itself has been  
turned off.  
• Disconnect the player from the wall outlet if you  
are not going to use the player for a long time. To  
disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp  
the plug itself; never pull the cord.  
• Observe following points to prevent the AC  
power cord (mains lead) being damaged. Do not  
use the AC power cord (mains lead) if it is  
damaged, as doing so may result in an electric  
shock or fire.  
– Do not pinch the AC power cord (mains lead)  
between the player and wall, shelf, etc.

• This unit operates on 220–240V AC, 50/60Hz. Check  
that the unit’s operating voltage is identical with your  
local power supply.  
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects  
filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus.  
• Install this unit so that the mains lead can be  
unplugged from the wall socket immediately in the  
event of trouble.  
Precautions

comply with the limits set out in the EMC Directive  
using a connection cable shorter than 3 metres.  
On adjusting volume  
Do not turn up the volume while listening to a  
section with very low level inputs or no audio  
signals. If you do, your ears and the speakers may  
be damaged when a peak level section is played.  
On placement

communication, this player supports various  
security functions. Be sure to correctly  
configure the security settings in accordance  
with your network environment.  
No Security  
Although you can easily make settings,  
anyone can intercept wireless  
communication or intrude into your wireless  
network, even without any sophisticated  
tools. Keep in mind that there is a risk of  
unauthorised access or interception of data.  
WEP  
WEP applies security to communications to  
prevent outsiders from intercepting  
communications or intruding into your  
wireless network. WEP is a legacy security  
technology that enables older devices, which  
do not support TKIP/AES, to be connected.  
WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)  
TKIP is a security technology developed to  
correct for the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP  
assures a higher security level than WEP.  
WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES)  
AES is a security technology that uses an  
advanced security method that is distinct  
from WEP and TKIP.  
AES assures a higher security level than  
WEP or TKIP.
