General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your CDs, MDs and the mechanism clean.
•Store CDs and MDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.
•Keep the CD trays, and the MD loading slot cover closed when not in use.
Handling CDs
• Remove the CD 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 CD.
• Put the CD back in its case after use to prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the CD when placing it back in its case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.
To clean the CD
Wipe the CD with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
Handling MDs
• Do not open the shutter.
- The shutter is locked so that it will not open. Trying to force it open will break the MD. If the shutter opens accidentally, close it again quickly without touching the MD inside.
•Do not place MDs in the follow- ing places:
- High temperature areas such as in direct sunlight or inside a car.
-High humidity areas, e.g. in a bathroom.
-On a beach or sandy area.
•Clean MDs regularly.
-If dust or dirt gets on cartridge, wipe it off with a soft dry cloth.
DO NOT use any solvent — such as conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, or benzine — to clean the CD.
