OPERATING PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Place the unit on a hard and plane surface to ensure that it does not 

tip over.
Do not expose the unit, batteries or the CDs to humidity, rain, sand or 

an excessive source of heat from a heater or direct sunlight.
No  not  open  the  apparatus.  A  gap  of  at  least  15  cm  must  be  kept 

between  the  ventilation  openings  and  the  surrounding  surfaces  in 

order  to  ensure  sufficient  ventilation  and  avoid  all  accumulation  of 

heat.
The  unit's  mechanism  features  self-lubricating  bearings  and  thus  do 

not require grease or lubrication.
Use a soft and dry cloth to clean the unit. Never use cleaning agents 

containing    alcohol,  ammonia,  benzene  or  abrasives,  which  may 

damage the cabinet.

CLEANING CDs

Use a soft and clean cloth to wipe away fingerprints or dust from the surface of the disc.
Wipe  in  a  straight  motion  from  the  center  to  the  edge.  Very  small  dust  particles  and  slight  smudges 

have absolutely no effect on the sound quality.
Never  use  chemical  products  such  as  sprays  for  conventional  (vinyl)  records,  anti-static  aerosols, 

benzene or thinners to clean your CDs.
To reduce the risk of scratches, always store CDs in their case when not used.
Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight, high humidity or excessively high temperatures for long periods 

of time.
Never write or affix labels to the CD's surfaces.

CLEANING THE LENS

If the lens is dirty, the sound may skip and the CD may not be read correctly. Open the CD door and clean 

the lens as follows:

Unplug the power cord.
Dust or dry particles:
Blow on the lens several times using a camera lens brush, then wipe it gently with the brush to remove 

the dust. Then blow again on the lens.
Fingerprints:
If  you  are  unable  to  clean  the  lens  with  the  camera  lens  brush,  use  a  dry  cotton  swab  to  clean  the 

surface, from the center to the outside.
