Safety Information
FCC Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Technical Information
Safety Precautions
For Your Safety
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.
Product: Audio System
Brand: RCA
Model: RS2046
• Never open the cabinet under any circumstances.
Any repairs or internal adjustments should be made
only by a trained technician.
The AC power plug is polarized
(one blade is wider than the
other) and only fits into AC
power outlets one way. If the
plug won’t go into the outlet
completely, turn the plug over
and try to insert it the other way. If it still won’t
fit, contact a qualified electrician to change the
outlet, or use a different one. Do not attempt
to bypass this safety feature.
u s e r
m a n u a l
• Never operate this product with the cabinet
removed.
•Do not use your System immediately after
transporting it from a cold place to a warm place, as
condensation may cause the system to malfunction.
• Keep your unit away from humid areas and
abnormally hot places.
• Do not touch the player with wet hands. If any
liquid enters the player cabinet, take the player to a
trained technician for inspection.
• This compact disc player uses a laser to read the
music on the disc. The laser mechanism corresponds
to the cartridge and stylus of a record player.
Although this product incorporates a laser pick-up
lens, it is completely safe when operated according
to directions.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do
not use damaged, warped, or cracked discs.
• Do not touch the pick-up lens which is located
inside the disc compartment. To keep dust from
collecting on the pick-up lens, do not leave the
compartment door open for an extended period of
time. If the lens becomes dirty, clean it with a soft
brush, or use an air blower brush designed for
camera lenses.
