   4. Follow Instructions ­ All operating and use instructions should be followed.
   5. Water and Moisture ­ The appliance should not be used near water ­ for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
   6. Carts and Stands ­ The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.
   6A. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
   7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting ­ The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
   8. Ventilation ­ The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.
   9. Heat ­ The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
   10. Power Sources ­ The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.
   11. Grounding or Polarization ­ Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization means of an appliance is not defeated.

• Handle the power cord carefully. Hold the plug when unplugging the cord.

• (For sets with ventilation holes)
  · Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.

  • Never disassemble or modify the set in any way.

CAUTION:
At the bottom of the player there are two red shipping screws for use when the player is transported. Before using the player, turn these screws counterclockwise and remove them.

IMPORTANT (CANADIAN MODEL ONLY)
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus setout in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communication.

FEATURES

(1) HDCD® (High Definition Compatible Digital) decoder (DCM370) HDCD is an encoding/decoding technology that greatly reduces the distortion occurring at the time of digital recording while maintaining compatibility with the conventional CD format. HDCD allows 20-bit data to be converted into the 16-bit data of current CDs with no loss in sound quality. The use of this HDCD decoder makes it possible to achieve the high resolution and low distortion characteristic of HDCD when playing HDCDcompatible discs, and DENON’s digital technology optimizes the high sound quality possibilities of HDCD technology. Furthermore, normal CDs and HDCD-compatible CDs are automatically identified, and the optimum digital signal processing for that type of disc used.
(2) High performance digital filter The DCM-370/270 uses high precision 8-times oversampling digital filters.
(3) Simple Playback of 8cm CD Singles 8cm CD singles can be played without using an adaptor.
(4) Programming of up to 32 tracks All of the tracks on a CD can be programmed to play in any order. Programming in units of discs (all tracks on a disc) is also possible.
(5) Newly developed carousel-type changer mechanism included This mechanism can house five discs, and while one disc is playing the remaining four discs can be changed. In addition, the carousel can be rotated either clockwise or counterclockwise, so searching between discs is fast.
(6) Wireless Remote Control Accessory In addition to general operations such as Play, Stop and Pause, this remote control unit enables direct selection, direct programming, and other functions. Use of the remote control unit adds greatly to the operating ease of the DCM-370/270, enhancing its outstanding features.

CAUTIONS DURING USE
· This compact disc player is capable of playing discs
C which have the mark at right.
· During track selection, during search and when the player sustains a strong impact, the disc’s rotational speed changes greatly, causing a small noise to be emitted. This is not a malfunction of the player.
· If the CD player is operated while an FM or AM broadcast is being received, there may be noise in the FM or AM reception. Please switch the power to the CD player off at such times.
· The DCM-370/270 has a broad dynamic range. Please exercise caution when turning up the volume on the amplifier in cases when the playback volume is low. If the volume is turned up too high, it could damage the speakers.
· Do not use any discs but exclusive audio discs with this CD player.

• Placing this player or its connection cords near a TV or other audio device could cause a humming sound to be emitted. If this occurs, relocate the player or reroute the connection cords.
  · Be sure to remove the disc from the player before moving it. The disc could be damaged if left in the player while it is being moved.
  · Do not place any object in the tray in the position where the disc is loaded, or open and close the tray with anything inside. Foreign objects in the tray could damage the play mechanism.
  · Do not move the player from a cold place to a warm place suddenly. If the player is cold when brought into a warm room, condensation could form, preventing proper operation of the player. If condensation does form on the player when it is brought into a warm room, wait at least 30 minutes before use.
  CAUTION: 1. Always remove all discs from the trays when moving the set. Failure to do
  so may damage the set. 2. When the power is turned off, the varied level will be cleared and be set to
  0 dB.

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

The CD player uses a microcomputer for controlling internal electronic circuits. In the event that the player is used while a near-by tuner or TV is turned on, although unlikely, interference could occur either in the sound from the tuner or the picture of the TV. To avoid this, please take the following precautions. · Keep the CD player as far away from the tuner or TV set as possible. · Keep the power cable and connecting cable of the CD player separate from
the antenna wires of the tuner and TV. · Interference is particular likely to occur when an indoor antenna or a 300
/ohms feeder cable is used. Thus, use of an outdoor antenna and 75 /ohms coaxial cable is strongly recommended.
