The AEL (Accessible Emission Level) of Laser Power Output
for this model is specified to be lower than Class I Requirements.
However, the following precautions must be observed during
servicing to protect your eyes against exposure to the Laser
beam.

(1) When the cabinet has been removed, the power is turned

on without a compact disc, and the Pickup is on a position
outer than the lead-in position, the Laser will light for several
seconds to detect a disc. Do not look into the Pickup Lens.

(2) The Laser Power Output of the Pickup inside the unit and

replacement service parts have already been adjusted prior
to shipping.

(3) No adjustment to the Laser Power should be attempted

when replacing or servicing the Pickup.

(4) Under no circumstances look directly into the Pickup Lens

at any time.

(5) CAUTION - Use of controls or adjustments, or performance

of procedures other than those specified herein may result
in hazardous radiation exposure.

Before returning the unit to the customer after completion of a
repair or adjustment it is necessary for the following withstand
