Moisture Condensation

On a rainy day or in a very damp area, moisture may condense on the lenses inside the MD player. Should this occur, the unit will not operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and wait for about an hour until the moisture evaporates.

Notes on MDs

Since an MD itself is housed in a cartridge, free from accidental contact with your fingers and dust etc., it can withstand a certain degree of the rough handling. However, dirt or dust on the surface of the cartridge or a warped cartridge may cause a malfunction quality, observe the following.

Never touch the surface of the MD itself by deliberately opening the shutter on the cartridge.

Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air-ducts. Do not leave it in a car parked in the direct sunlight where there can a considerable rise in temperature.

Make sure that it is not left on the dashboard or rear tray of a car etc. where the temperature can also be excessive.

Notes on mounting labels

Be sure to mount labels on cartridges correctly, as failing to do so may cause an MD to become stuck in the unit.

•Mount the label in a suitable position. •Remove old labels before putting new ones

on.

•Replace labels that are beginning to peel away from the MD.
