CARE AND HANDLING OF COMPACT DISCS
•
surface (shiny side) with a soft cloth. Unlike vinyl records, the CD has
no grooves to collect microscopic debris, so gentle wiping with a soft
cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight motion from
the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and light
stains should have absolutely no effect on reproduction quality.
• Never use chemicals such as record sprays or fluid, benzene or other
solvents to clean CDs. Such chemicals will irreparably damage the
disc’s plastic surface.
Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc’s signal
•
scratches that could cause the laser pickup to skip.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity or high
temperatures for extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures can warp the disc.
• Do not stick paper or write anything with a ball-point pen on the disc
surface.
Discs should be returned to their case after use to avoid serious
INSTALLING AND REPLACING BATTERIES
The remote handset uses two 1.5 V type AAA batteries. To fit new
batteries first open the battery compartment at the base of the
handset and remove any existing batteries. Fit the new ones as
directed by the symbols moulded inside the battery compartment,
then replace the battery compartment cover.
The batteries should always be removed if they are discharged
(indicated by no remote control operation or by operation only at very
short range), or if the remote control is not going to be used for an
extended period.

No sound:
• Power turned off or system in standby mode. Check that the LED by
the STANDBY button is illuminated red.
