Cleaning the unit

Stains on the unit

Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the unit is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

DO NOT wipe it with a rough cloth.

DO NOT wipe it too vigorously.

DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.

DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as an insecticide to it.

DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact with it for a long time.

Handling discs

Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge while pressing

the center hole lightly.

• Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.

• Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping.

• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when placing it back in its case.

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.

To clean the disc

Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

DO NOT use any solvent—such as conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, or benzine—to clean

the disc.

• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up the slack by inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotating.
