More information
Cassettes
• To protect your
recordings from
accidental erasure on one
or both sides of your
cassette, snap out the tab at the
top of the cassette. If you
decide later to record on the
tape, seal the hole with a piece
of adhesive tape. (Refer to diagram on the right)
• Quit Slacking - A little bit of slack
in your tapes can cause scratches on
the tape, or worse yet, the tape
could break. If you notice some slack
in the tape, use a pencil to tighten it
up before you insert it.
Cleaning the exterior
• Disconnect the system from AC power before
cleaning the exterior of the unit with a soft dust
cloth
• Clean the exterior with a soft clean cloth or
slightly moistened chamois leather. DO NOT use
solvents as it may cause damage to the unit.
Handling CDs
• Do not touch the signal surfaces. Hold CDs by the
edges, or by one edge and the hole.
• Do not affix labels or adhesive tapes to the label
surfaces. Do not scratch or damage the label.
• CDs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Do
not use damaged (cracked or warped) CDs
• Make sure CDs are stored in their original case
after use. Keep them away from damp, humid or
abnormally heated places.
Cleaning CDs
• Dirty CDs can cause poor sound quality. Always
keep CDs clean by wiping them gently with a soft
cloth from the inner edge toward the outer
perimeter.
• If a CD becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in water,
wring it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and
then remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic
agents on CDs. Also, never clean CDs with benzene,
thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause
damage to disc surface.
The descriptions and characteristics in this owner’s
manual are for the purpose of general reference only
and not as a guarantee. In order to provide you with
the highest quality product, we may make changes or
modifications without prior notice. The English version
serves as the final reference on all product and
operational details should any discrepancies arise in
other languages.
CD Lens Care
• When your CD lens gets dirty it can also cause the
system to output poor sound quality. To clean the
lens you will need to purchase a CD lens cleaner
which can maintain the output sound quality of
your system. For instructions on cleaning the CD
lens, refer to the ones accompanying the lens
cleaner.
Precautions
• Never open the cabinet under any circumstances.
Never operate this product with the cabinet
removed. Any repairs or internal adjustments
should be made only by a trained service
technician.
• Do not touch the player with wet hands. If any
liquid enters the player cabinet, take the player to
a trained service technician for inspection.
• This compact disc player uses a laser to read the
music on the disc. The laser mechanism corresponds
to the cartridge and stylus of a traditional record
player. Although this product incorporates a laser
pick-up lens, it is completely safe when operated
according to directions.
Notes on CD-R/RW Disc
• CD-R/RW discs that are recorded using personal
computers or other CD-R/RW recorders may not be
played on this unit due to the difference in
recording platforms.
• Do not affix any type of labels to either side
(recordable or labeled side) of a CD-R/RW disc as
this may result in the disc malfunctioning.
• To avoid damages to the CD-R/RW disc, do not
open the disc compartment door while the disc is
being read. This may take more then 30 seconds.
• Do not load an unrecorded CD-R/RW disc into
the unit.
