ˆCare and Maintenance
Keep the CD player dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the CD player only in normal temperature environments. Handle the CD player carefully; do not drop it. Keep the CD player away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
Modifying or tampering with the CD player’s internal components can cause a malfunction and might invali- date its warranty. If your CD player is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assis- tance.
CD CARE TIPS
Even though a compact disc is dura- ble, treat the CD surface with care.
•Do not write on either side of the CD, particularly the
•Do not store CDs in high temper- ature or high humidity areas. They might warp.
•Keep CDs dry. A water drop can act as a lens and affect the laser beam’s focus.
•Always handle a CD by the edges to avoid fingerprints and always keep it in its protective
case or sleeve when it is not in use. Fingerprints and scratches on the CD’s surface can prevent the laser beam from correctly reading the digital information. If the CD gets scratched, use RadioShack CD repair kit to repair the disc.
•Keep the CD inside the CD player or in its protective case or sleeve when you are not playing it.
•Never use chemicals such as record cleaning sprays, anti- static sprays or fluids, benzene, or thinner to clean CDs. These chemicals will permanently dam- age the plastic surface of the CD.
If a CD skips when you try to play it, the CD might be scratched. Your local RadioShack store sells a CD repair kit kit that might stop the skip. See “Troubleshooting” on Page 13.
