Precautions & General Maintenance
• Place the set on a hard and flat surface so that the
system does not tilt.
• Do not expose the set, batteries or CDs to
humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat caused by
heating equipment or direct sunlight.
• Do not cover the set. Adequate ventilation with a
minimum gap of 6 inches between the ventilation
holes and surrounding surfaces is necessary to
prevent heat build-up.
• The mechanical parts of the set contain self-
lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or
lubricated.
• To clean the set, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use
any cleaning agents containing alcohol, ammonia,
benzene or abrasives as these may harm the
housing.
CD player and CD handling
• The lens of the CD player should never be touched!
• Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause condensation to form and the lens of your CD player to
cloud over. Playing a CD is then not possible. Do not attempt to clean the lens but leave the set in a warm environment
until the moisture evaporates.
• Always close the CD door to keep the CD compartment dust-free. To clean, dust the compartment with a soft dry cloth.
• To clean the CD, wipe in a straight line from the center towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use cleaning
agents as they may damage the disc.
• Never write on a CD or attach any stickers to it.
