Discs for playback

Your CD recorder is able to play:

-All pre-recorded audio CDs.

-All Audio CDR and Audio CDRW.

Note: CDR(W) discs recorded with a computer can only be used when they are correctly treated according the audio standard (IEC958: Consumer part).

Single session only!

For recording it is very important to use dust and scratch free discs.

To clean a CD, wipe it in a straight

line from the center toward the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. A

cleaning agent may damage the disc! Write only on the printed side of a CDR or CDRW, and only with a

soft felt-tipped pen.

Clean the CD recorder with

a soft, slightly dampened lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents as they may have a corrosive effect.

Do not expose the CD recorder, batteries or CDs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).

Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.

The lenses may cloud over when the CD recorder is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings. It is not possible to play a CD then. Leave the CD recorder in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.
