Precautions for Playback
Compact discs (CDs) with the following logo on the
label surface can be used.
Do not use discs designed for purposes other than audio,
such as CD-ROMs for PC use. Abnormal noise could
damage the CD receiver.

Note that some discs may not playback because of the disc
characteristics, scratches, contamination or the recording state.
A disc recorded with an audio CD record will not playback
unless it is finalized.
Never use discs which have a special shape (such as
hearts or octagons). These types of discs could jam and
damage the CD receiver.

Some audio CDs with copy-control function do not
comply with official CD standards. These are special
