COMPACT DISC OPERATION
•
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre of the case and lift the
disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
•
Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc's recorded surface with a
soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves to collect dust
and microscopic debris so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles.
Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and
light stains will have absolutely no effect on reproduction quality.
•
Never use chemicals such as record sprays, antistatic sprays, benzine, or thinners to
clean compact discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
•
Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious 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 ballpoint pen on the label side of the disc.

If power is temporarily interrupted the display will blink and the radio will not play. However,
the battery back-up circuit will continue to maintain the clock and alarm settings. When power
