DISC HANDLING
Use only discs with regular shapes. If an irregular disc (a disc with a special shape) is used the
ERC-1 may be damaged.
Discs usable with the ERC-1
CD Audio (CD-DA), CD-R, CD-RW, HDCD
Holding discs
Avoid touching the surface of a disc where recording is performed.
Loading discs
Hold the CD by the edges loosely and gently slide the CD into the slot-loading
system. Wait for the ERC-1 to grab the disc, there will be a short delay while
the player grabs the disc. Release the disc into the ERC-1.
Cautions on loading discs
Do not force the disc into the slot-loading system or it may be damaged.
Make sure the CD label is facing up. Do not put the CD into the player upside
down or the disc may get stuck and the ERC-1 may be damaged.
Cautions on handling discs
Do not write on the printed side with a ball-point pen or pencil
Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic. Also, do not use volatile
chemicals, such as benzene or thinner.
Do not apply labels or stickers to discs. (Do not use discs fixed with exposed tape
adhesive or leftover peeled off stickers.
Do not use scratch-proof protectors or covers.
Do not use discs printed with label printers available on the market.
Do not load warped or cracked discs
Disc Storage
Be careful not to damage the disc as the data is highly susceptible to the environment
Do not put in direct sunlight.
Keep in a cool ventilated area.
Store vertically
Keep in a clean protective case.
If you move the ERC-1 from a cold place to a warm place, condensation may
collect on the inside parts and cause abnormal disc play. If this happens, wait for
at least two hours before connecting the ERC-1 to a power outlet.
