CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Player
Always unplug the power cord before cleaning the player. Clean the player using a soft, dry cloth. For tough dirt, dampen a soft cloth with some neu- tral detergent diluted in 5 to 6 parts water; wipe off the dirt, then wipe off the player with a dry cloth. Do not use alcohol, paint thinner, or other chemicals; they may damage the sur- face.
To clean the LCD screen, wipe the screen gently with a soft, dry cloth (such as an eyeglass cleaning cloth). Note that leaving water droplets on the display for long periods of time may result in discoloration or stains. For tough dirt, use a commercially available liquid crystal display cleaner.
Cleaning Discs
Fingerprints or dust on discs may impede playback. Clean discs using a soft cloth by gently wiping the disc from the center toward the edges. For tough dirt, use a damp cloth, then dry the disc with a dry cloth. Do not use volatile chemicals or solvents.
Storing Discs
•Always place discs in their case and store them vertically.
•Avoid storing discs in hot or humid places, places exposed to direct sun- light, or places where temperatures can become extreme.
•Follow any precautions provided by the disc manufacturer.
