CAUTION

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

such discs may cause irreparable harm to the playing mechanisms.

<  Printable  discs  are  not  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.

<  Never  use  a  stabilizer.  Using  commercially  available  CD  stabilizers 

with  this  unit  will  damage  the  mechanisms  and  cause  them  to 
malfunction.

<  Do not use irregular shape discs (octagonal, heart shaped, business 

card size, etc.). Discs of this sort can damage the unit:

<  Always  place  the  disc  on  the  disc  tray  with  the  label  side  up. 

Compact discs can be played or recorded only on one side.

<  To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of 

the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.

How to remove the disc 

How to hold the disc

<  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.

<  CD-R  and  CD-RW  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.

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

center hole outward towards the outer edge) with a 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.

If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a disc, read the 
precautions supplied with the disc, or contact the disc manufacturer.
