maintain top performance, and prolong operating life,
observe the following notes, precautions and environmen-
tal conditions:
Avoid exposing it to extremes of temperature and
humidity and avoid mechanical shocks and vibration.
Keep the unit away from strong magnetic fields (TV

leave sufficient space above the unit for ventilation. Do
not install this unit in a confined space such as a book-
case, and do not put anything on top of the unit.
Avoid installing this unit on top of any heat-generating
electrical device such as a power amplifier.
Make sure that the unit is mounted in a level position for
correct operation.
The voltage supplied to the unit should match the volt-

Media considerations (DP-02CF only)
The capacities and performance of your DP-02CF will
vary based on the speed and abilities of the Compact
Flash (CF) media used. Older and some cheaper Compact
Flash (CF) cards use slower memory components and
little internal buffering which results in poor recording
performance. Newer CF cards, not only perform reading
and writing faster, but also come in larger storage size.
NOTE
A card more than 512 MB should be used on the
DP-02CF.
The DP-02CF supports only Type I Compact Flash media.
Type I cards are typically FLASH-ROM based and provide
higher performance and durability than hard disk cards.
A current list of stated CF cards and their capacities is

WARNING
When using the unit, use only the power adaptor and
cable supplied with product. Do not use this power
adaptor and cable with any other product.
If the unit is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used
after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of
condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the
internal mechanism, making correct operation impossible.
To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the player sit for one or
two hours at the new room temperature before using.
Beware of condensation
