DISC MAINTENANCE
Depending on the quality of the disc, and the condition of the recording, some
CD-R/CD-RW discs may not be playable.
1. Always place the compact disc in the disc tray with the label facing upward.
(Compact discs can be played only on one side).
2. To move a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and
lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
3. If the disc becomes dirty, wipe the surface from the center hole outward towards
the outer edge with a soft, dry cloth.
4. Never use such chemicals as record spray, antistatic sprays or fluid, benzine or
thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do irreparable damage to the
disc's plastic surface.
5. Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid serious scratches that
could cause the laser pick up to skip.
6. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and temperature for
extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures will warp the discs.
7. Printable CD-R and CD-RW discs are not recommended, as the label side might
be sticky and damage the unit.
8. Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information on the label side.
Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this may cause damage to the
recorded side.
9. Do not use CDs with an irregular shape (octagonal, heart-shaped, business card
size, etc). CDs of this sort can damage the unit.
10. If you have any doubts of using CD-R/CD-RW disc, read the precautions
supplied with the disc, or contact the disc manufacturer directly.
