Notes on discs

•To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface. Handle the disc by its edge.

•Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines when not in use.

•Do not subject discs to heat/high temperature. Avoid leaving them in a parked car or on a dashboard/rear tray.

•Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin the disc.

•Before playing, clean the discs with a commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe each disc from the centre out. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended for analogue discs.

Notes on CD-R/CD-RW discs

Look for these marks to distinguish CD-Rs/ CD-RWs for audio use.

These marks denote that a disc is not for audio use.

•Do not use any discs with labels or stickers attached.

The following malfunctions may result from using such discs:

–Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or sticker peeling off and jamming the eject mechanism).

–Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g., playback skipping, or no playback) due to heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing a disc to warp.

•Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square, star) cannot be played on this unit. Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do not use such discs.

•You cannot play 8 cm CDs.

•Some CD-Rs/CD-RWs (depending on the equipment used for its recording or the condition of the disc) may not play on this unit.
