Handling Mini discs

•The MD shutter is designed so that it cannot
be opened. If forced open, the cartridge will
be damaged and use of the MD will no
longer be possible. If the shutter has been
opened due to some cause, be careful not to
touch the recording portion with a finger.
Doing so will cause the sound to skip.
•Do not use an MD that has a peeling label.
Use of an MD that has a loose or peeling
label may cause problems, such as the label
coming off inside the player and the
resultant inability to eject the MD.
•Wipe away dirt or dust from the cartridge
surface with a dry cloth before use. Using an
oil-soiled cartridge in particular may result in
the disc not loading or being unable to eject
it. (At time of cleaning, be careful not to
open the shutter.)
•Do not leave the MD in the unit for a
prolonged period. The ejected MD should be
placed in an MD case for storage.
•Do not leave the MD in a place exposed to
direct sunlight (such as on a instrument
panel) or in other places that reach high
temperatures. The MD cartridge will become
misshapen and will no longer be usable.
•MDs designed for use with data cannot be
used. Please use MDs designed for music.
•Do not use lens cleaners. Doing so will lead
to breakdown.

The marking of products using lasers

(Except for some areas)

The label is attached to the chassis/case and
says that the component uses laser beams
that have been classified as Class 1. It
means that the unit is utilizing laser beams
that are of a weaker class. There is no
danger of hazardous radiation outside the
unit.
