CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Handling Compact Discs
• Do not touch the signal surfaces. Hold by the edges, or by one edge and the hole.
• Do not affix labels or adhesive tape to the label surfaces. Also, do not scratch or damage the
label.
• Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
Cleaning Compact Discs
• Dirty discs can cause poor sound quality. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a
soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
• If a disc becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well, wipe the dirt away gently,
and then remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Also, never clean discs with
benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
CD Lens Care
When your CD lens gets dirty it can also cause the unit to output poor sound quality. To clean the
lens you will need to purchase a CD lens cleaner which can maintain the output sound quality. For
instructions on cleaning the CD lens, refer to the ones accompanying the lens care.
Cleaning the Exterior
Prior to cleaning the exterior, be sure to unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet. Wipe
the exterior with a soft, clean, and slightly water-dampened cloth.
Precautions
• Never open the cabinet under any circumstances. Any repairs or internal adjustments should be
made only by a trained technician.
• Warning: Never operate this product with the cabinet removed.
• The CD player of this unit uses a laser to read the music on the disc. The laser mechanism
corresponds to the cartridge and stylus of a record player. Although this product incorporates a
laser pick-up lens, it is completely safe when operated according to directions.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use damaged, warped or cracked discs.
• Do not touch the pick-up lens which is located inside the disc compartment. Also, to keep dust
from collecting on the pick-up lens, do not leave the compartment door open for an extended
period of time.
