CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Caring for Compact Discs
• Treat the disc carefully. Handle the disc only
by its edges. Never allow your fingers to
come in contact with the shiny, unprinted side
of the disc.
• Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers, etc.
to the disc label.
• Clean the disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never use detergents
or abrasive cleaners to clean the disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.
• If a disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the disc, it is probably dirty or
damaged (scratched).
• When cleaning the disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of the disc to the
outer edge of the disc. Never wipe in circular motions.
• This unit is designed to play only discs bearing the identification
logo as shown here. Other discs may not conform to the CD
standard and may not play properly.
• Discs should be stored in their cases after each use to avoid
damage.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, high temperatures, or
dust, etc. Prolonged exposure or extreme temperatures can warp the disc.
• Do not stick or write anything on either side of the disc. Sharp writing
instruments, or the ink may damage the surface.
Cleaning the unit
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power
source when cleaning.
• The finish on your unit may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other
furniture. Use caution when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts.
• Mild soap and a damp cloth may be used on the front panel.
