Placing a Disc

1Open the disc tray.
Press OPEN/CLOSE (x) on the DVD deck to open the
disc tray.
Pressing the button again closes the disc tray.
Do not block the disc tray with your hand while it is opening
or closing as this may result in hardware failure.
Do not place unplayable discs or any object other than a disc
in the disc tray.
Do not press down strongly on the disc tray or place any heavy
objects on it.
2Place the disc.
Place the disc in the disc tray
with the label side facing up.
Since disc size changes depending
on the disc to be played back, be
sure to correctly align the disc with
the grooves for its size. If the disc is
not in its groove, it may be
scratched or otherwise damaged.
To insert an 8 cm disc, place it
according to the inner groove.

Care and Handling of Discs

How to handle discs
When handling a disc, do
not touch the surface of the
disc. Since discs are made
of plastic, they are easily
damaged. If a disc gets dirty,
dusty, scratched or warped,
the images and sound will
not be picked up correctly,
and such a disc may cause the unit to malfunction.
Label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive
on its surface.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on
top of one another without their protective cases, they can be
damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be
exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or
temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!
Maintenance of discs
If there are fingerprints or other dirt
adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry
cloth, moving from the center outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a
cloth moistened with water. Never use
record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any
anti-static agents.

CAUTION
Sometimes during playback, noise or images may be garbled.
This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to
industry standards.)
These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the
malfunction of the unit.
