How to remove the disc How to hold the disc

• Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface radially (from the

center hole outward towards the outer edge) with soft, dry cloth:

•

• Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or

fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do

irreparable damage to the disc's plastic surface.

• Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid dust

and scratches that could cause the laser pickup to "skip."

• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and

temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high

temperatures will warp the disc.

• Do not play any disc that is warped, deformed or damaged.

Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to the playing

mechanisms.

• CD-R, CD-RW and CD-MP3 discs are more sensitive to the

effects of heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs.

It is important that they are not stored in a location where direct

sunlight will fall on them and away from sources of heat such as

radiators or heat-generating electrical devices.

• Printable CD-R, CD-RW and CD-MP3 discs aren't recommended,

as the label side might be sticky and damage the unit.

• Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do not

use any protective coating spray.

• Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information on

the label side. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this

may cause damage to the recorded side.

• Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD

stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms and cause

them to malfunction.

• Do not use CDs with an irregular shape (octagonal, heart

shaped, business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the

unit:

• If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a CD-R/

CD-RW and CD-MP3 disc, read the precautions supplied with the

disc, or contact the disc manufacturer directly.
