Cleaning the jog dial

To clean the PLAYER wipe with a polishing or a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, moisten a soft cloth with a weak solution of neutral detergent (diluted in five to six parts water), wring the cloth well, and wipe away the dirt. Use a dry cloth to wipe the surface dry. Applying alcohol, paint thinner, benzene, insecticides, or other stringent substances to the jog dial may cause the markings or finishing of the dial to peel or become discolored, and the use of any such substances should accordingly be avoided.
