Apparatus should not be exposed to any dripping or splashing.

Do not place any object or items that can damage the apparatus (e.g., liquid filled objects, lighted candles).

Cleaning discs

Some problems occur (frozen picture, sound disruptions, picture distortions) because the disc in the apparatus is dirty. To avoid these problems, discs should be cleaned on a regular basis.

To clean a disc, use a micro fibre cleaning cloth and wipe the disc from centre to the edge in straight line movement.
