CD and CD Player Tips

Although a CD is very durable, you should handle it with care. We recom- mend these precautions.

•Keep the CD in its protective case or sleeve when you are not play- ing it.

•Keep the CD clean. Your local RadioShack store sells a suitable CD cleaner kit.

•Keep the CD dry. A drop of mois- ture can act as a lens and affect the laser beam’s focus. If it gets wet, wipe the CD with a soft, dry cloth before playing it.

•Do not write on either side of a CD, especially the non-label side.

•Handle the CD by its edge to avoid fingerprints and surface scratches, which can prevent the laser from accurately reading the CD. To clean the surface, use a CD Cleaner Kit (such as Cat. No. 42-226) or Scratch ’n Fix (Cat. No. 42-127).

•Do not store CDs in high-tempera- ture, high-humidity locations.

Note: If the CD-3329 is subject to a sudden shock or jolt during play, the CD’s rotation speed might suddenly change, and the music might be brief- ly interrupted or the current track might start over. This is not a malfunc- tion.

Cautions:

•To avoid damaging the CD player, do not place anything but a CD in the CD compartment.

•Remove any loaded CD from the CD player before moving the CD- 3329 to prevent damaging the CD.

•Moving the CD player suddenly from a cold place to a warmer one can cause moisture to form on the pickup lens and disrupt operation. If this happens, unplug it and wait about 2 hours for the moisture to evaporate before playing a CD.
