Maintenance

Clean the set 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 set,

batteries or CDs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).

The lenses may cloud over when the set is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings. Playing a CD(RW) is not possible then. Leave the set in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

To take a CD(RW) out of its box

 

easily, press the centre spindle while

 

lifting the CD(RW). Always pick up a

attach a sticker to it. Write only on

 

the printed side of a CDR or CDRW,

 

and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.

 

To clean a CD(RW), wipe it in a straight line from the centre toward the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth.

A cleaning agent may damage the disc!
