Cleaning the pickup lens
The player’s lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for
some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your
nearest Pioneer authorized service center. Although lens cleaners
for players are commercially available, we advise against using
them since some may damage the lens.
Handling discs
Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
Do not scratch the disc’s signal surface or let it get dirty.
Do not load more than one disc into the player at a time.
Do not glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a pencil, ball-
point pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could all
damage the disc.
Storing discs
Always store discs in their cases, and place the cases vertically,
avoiding places exposed to high temperature or humidity, direct
sunlight or extremely low temperatures.
Be sure to read the cautions included with the disc.
Cleaning discs
It may not be possible to play the disc if there are fingerprints or dust
on it. In this case, using a cleaning cloth, etc., to wipe the disc gently
from the center toward the outer edge. Do not use a dirty cleaning
cloth.
Do not use benzene, thinner or other volatile chemicals. Also do not
use record spray or antistatic agents.
For tough dirt, apply some water to a soft cloth, wring out
thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe off the moisture with a dry
cloth.
Specially shaped discs
Specially shaped discs (heart-shaped, hexagonal, etc.) cannot be
used on this player. Never use such discs, as they will damage the
player.
Condensation on discs
If the disc is moved suddenly from a cold place into a warm room (in
winter, for example), water droplets (condensation) may form on the
disc surface. Discs will not play properly if there is condensation on
them. Carefully wipe off the water droplets from the disc surface
before using the disc.
