Handling a CD
Cleaning the CD
Before playing a CD, wipe it off
with a clean, dust-free cleaning
cloth. Pull out the CD in the direc-
tion of the arrow.
CAUTION:
Do not use any solvents such as petrol or
thinning agents. Commercially available cleaning substances or
antistatic sprays will damage the device.
Inserting the CD
If the CD is inserted with the
printed side facing downwards, the
device may be damaged.
Always insert the CD with the label
facing upwards.
CAUTION:
If there is already a CD in the CD slit, do not try
to insert a second CD. This may damage the device.
Touching the CD
Always hold CDs by the edge. In
order to keep the CD clean do not
touch the surface.
CAUTION:
• Do not attach any stickers or adhesive tape to the CD.
• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or sources of heat
such as heating pipes. Do not leave CDs in the car if it is
parked in direct sunlight as this will lead to a considerable
rise in the temperature inside the car.
• Check all CDs for cracks, scratches and warping before
you play them. It is possible that CDs that are damaged in
this way cannot be played back correctly. Such CDs should
not be used.
• Use only standard commercially available circular CDs with
a 12 cm diameter! CDs with an 8 cm diameter or CDs with
contours, e.g. of a butterfly or heart, are not suitable. It is
possible that such CDs may not only be destroyed them-
selves, but may also destroy the drive of the CD player. We
cannot accept liability for damage caused by the use of
unsuitable CDs.
