Care And Maintenance
Handle your CDs carefully, and they will last a long time.
Compact Discs
• Only CDs bearing this mark can be used with this System. How- ever, continued use of irregular shape CDs
• Do not stick a paper tape or a seal
on the reading side or the label side.
If you do so, the CD may not be unloaded, or the System can be damaged.
• Remove the CD from its case by holding it at the edges while press- ing the case’s center hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the CD, or bend the CD.
•Put the CD back in its case after use to prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the sur- face of the CD when placing it back in the case.
•Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.
• A dirty CD may not play cor- rectly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
CAUTION:
•Do not use any solvent (for example, con- ventional record cleaner, spray thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.
Moisture Condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the System in the following cases:
•After turning on heating in the room.
•In a damp room.
•If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place.
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case, leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.
