Setup

-Place the recorder on a strong, vibration-free surface.

-Do not use the recorder under extremely damp condi- tions.

-If the recorder is placed in a cabinet, make sure that a 2.5 cm space remains free on all sides of the recorder for proper ventilation.

Attention!

If the appliance is not used or operated in accordance with the instructions, this may result in exposure to dangerous radiation or other risks.

Only authorized technicians are allowed to open the appli- ance casing or to perform repairs or maintenance.

Compact discs

The glossy side shining like a rainbow is the front side of the disc, and the side on which the label is printed is the back. Unlike conventional turntables for playing analog discs, the CDR631 reads the information recorded on the disc from un- derneath without contacting it using a beam of laser light. Therefore, the performance of a compact disc will not degrade like conventional analog records.

Handle discs carefully so as not to damage or scratch the front side.

To protect the disc, avoid placing it in the following loca- tions:

-In direct sunlight or near a source of heat like a heater.

-In a place which is damp or dirty.

-In a place which could be exposed to rain, such as near a window.

Always keep the disc surface clean.

Up to six billion data units are recorded on the front side of the disc. When cleaning the disc surface, always be sure to use a special compact disc cleaner and wipe as shown below.

Wipe in a radial direction. Do not wipe in circumferential direction.

•Do not use conventional record cleaner for analog records, as this will adversely affect the disc surface.

Store discs properly by placing them in their disc cases.

•Do not attach a piece of paper or sticker on the label side of disc. When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental CD label with paste protruded from the edge or when a disc has a trace of such a sticky object, do not attempt to play the disc. If such a disc is played on the CD player, impossibility of tak- ing out the disc or other malfunction may result.

•Write only on the printed side of a CD-R or CD-RW, and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.

•Do not use a disc with a special shape.

Do not attempt to play a disc with a special shape such as a heart-shaped disc or octagonal disc. Otherwise the equip- ment malfunction may result.

Maintenance

Clean the CD-Recorder with a soft, slightly dampened lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents as they may have a cor- rosive effect.

Do not expose the CD-Recorder, batteries or CDs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).

If the CD-Recorder cannot read CDs correctly use a commonly available cleaning CD to clean the lens before taking the CD player to be repaired. Other cleaning methods may destroy the lens. Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.

The lenses may cloud over when the CD-Recorder is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings. It is not possible to play a CD then. Leave the CD-Recorder in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.
