CD player and CD handling

•If the CD player cannot read CDs correctly, use a commonly available cleaning CD to clean the lens before taking the set to repair. Other cleaning methods may destroy the lens.

•The lens of the CD player should never be touched!

•Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause condensation to cloud over on the lens of your CD player. Playing a CD is then not possible. Do not attempt to clean the lens but leave the set in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

•Always keep the CD compartment closed to avoid dust on the lens.

•To take a CD out of its box, press the centre spindle while lifting the CD. Always pick up the CD by the edge and return the CD to its box after use to avoid scratching and dust.

•To clean the CD, wipe in a straight line from the centre towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use cleaning agents as they may damage the disc.

•Never write on a CD or attach any stickers to it.
