Cleaning the Player

Use a soft cloth or the dusting attachment of your vacuum cleaner to dust the exposed surface of the
player.  Use the vacuum cleaner attachment to remove dust from the ventilation holes on the top,
back, sides, and bottom of the cabinet.

Some of the plastic surfaces are easily scratched, and they can be marred by alcohol and various
solvents.  Avoid excessive use of oil-based furniture polishes since the materials used in the cabinet
are non-porous and the residue will accumulate more dust.

Handling Discs

When loading or removing discs, try not to touch
their playing surface.

Cleaning Discs

Fingerprints or other dirt on the discs may affect
sound and picture quality.

To clean your discs, use a soft clean cloth to wipe
them.  If necessary, moisten a soft cloth with a
diluted neutral detergent solution to remove
heavy deposits and oil from fingerprints.

Discs should not be cleaned with record cleaning
sprays, static prevention sprays, or volatile liquids
such as benzine or thinner.

Do Not Play Cracked or Warped Discs

Never play a cracked, scratched, or warped disc.
This may damage the player or cause it to
malfunction.

Storing Discs

After playing a disc, always remove it from the
player and return it to its jacket.  Then store it
standing upright away from heat and humidity.

Store discs carefully.  If you store discs at an angle,
or stacked on top of each other, discs may become
warped even when in their jackets.

Do not leave discs in locations such as the seat of a
car, which may become excessively hot.

Warped Laser Discs

1.

Put the warped laser disc into its protective
envelope.

2.

Place the envelop between two flat plates of
glass. 

3.

Place heavy books on top of the plates so that
approximately ten pounds of pressure is
applied. 

4.

Leave the disc like this for a day or two.  The
warp may be corrected.
