Care and Maintenance

Handle your CDs carefully, and they will last a long time.

• If there are fingerprints, etc. on the lens, gently wipe clean with

 

a cotton swab.

 

Compact Discs

• Only CDs bearing this mark can be used with this System. However, continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the System.

Remove the CD from its case by holding it at

the edges while pressing 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 surface 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 correctly. 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, conventional record cleaner, spray thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.

General Notes

In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your CDs and the mechanism clean.

Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.

Keep the system’s CD cover closed when not in use.

Cleaning the Lens

If the lens in the CD pickup is dirty, sound degradation may take place.

Open the CD cover and clean the lens as shown.

Use a blower (available from a camera store) to blow dust off the lens.

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.

Cassette Tapes

If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in the cassette. Take up the slack by

inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotating.

Do not touch the tape surface.

Do not store the tape:

- In dusty places

- In direct sunlight or heat - In moist areas

-Near a magnet
