IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
 
TASCAM  DP-02/DP-02CF
4 – DP-02 Appendix
The CD-RW901SL has been designed for the playback 
of CD-DA (standard audio) format discs and MP3 files 
recorded on the discs using the ISO9660 format: In addi-
tion to ordinary 5-inch and 3-inch CDs, it can also play 
properly recorded CD-R and CD-RW discs.
Always insert the compact discs into the unit with their 
label facing upward.
To remove a disc from its case, press down on the center 
of the disc holder, then lift the disc out, holding it care-
fully by the edges.
Avoid getting fingerprints on the signal side (the 
non-label side). Grime and dust may cause skipping, so 
keep discs clean and store them in their cases when not 
being played. To clean the signal side of a disc, wipe 
gently with a soft dry cloth from the center towards the 
outside edge.
Do not use any record spray, anti-static solutions, 
benzene, paint thinner or other chemical agents to clean 
CDs as they could damage the delicate playing surface. 
It may cause CDs to become unplayable.
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid 
serious scratches that could cause the laser pickup to “skip.”
Keep discs away from direct sunlight, and places of 
high heat and humidity. If left in such places, warping 
could result.
Do not affix any labels or stickers to the label side of the 
disc. Do not write on the disc with a ballpoint pen.
Do not insert discs that have adhesive remaining from 
tape or stickers that have been removed. If they are 
inserted into the player, they could stick to the internal 
mechanism, requiring removal by a technician.
Do not use cracked discs.
Only use circular compact discs. Avoid using non-circu-
lar promotional, etc. discs.
The DP-02 cannot play unfinalized CD-R/RW discs.
Music discs with copy control, a copy-protection 
system, have been released from several record compa-
nies in an attempt to protect the copyright. Since some 
of these discs do not comply with the CD specifications, 
they may not be playable on the DP-02.


Handling of compact discs
Using commercially available CD stabilizers or printable 
recordable discs with this player will damage the mecha-
nism and cause it to malfunction.
NOTE
Never use a disc that has had a stabilizer mounted to 
it. The residual adhesive may cause the disc to stick to 
the turntable of the DP-02. If it sticks to the turntable, 
you will need a technician to get it out.
Never use a stabilizer or printable discs
