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.
