Naming folders and files

(Files are treated as contents and folders are treated as groups on this unit.)

At the time of recording, prefix folder and file names. This should be with numbers that have an equal number of digits, and should be done in the order you want to play them (this may not work at times).

e.g. [MP3]

∫Clean this unit with a soft, dry cloth.

≥Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to clean this unit.

≥Before using chemically treated cloth, carefully read the instructions that came with the cloth.

Do not use commercially available lens cleaners as they may cause malfunction. Cleaning of the lens is generally not necessary although this depends on the operating environment.

Before moving the unit, ensure the disc trays are empty. Failure to do so will risk severely damaging the discs and the unit.
