the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not
get on the surface.

with a mild detergent diluted in water and wipe with a
soft cloth.

When cleaning, wipe gently from the inside to the outside of the disc.
Handling discs
Handling and Storing Discs
Cautions on Handling and Storing Discs
Small scratches on the disc may reduce sound and picture quality or cause breaks in
playback. Be especially careful not to scratch discs when handling them.
•
Condensation may form if warm air comes into contact with cold parts
inside the player. When condensation forms inside the player, the player
may not operate correctly. If this occurs, remove the disc and let the
player stand for 1 or 2 hours with the power on.
Note
•
Check that the tape in the cassette is sufficiently taut.
•
To prevent erasing a cassette that you wish to keep, remove the safety tab on the upper edge of the
cassette. To record a cassette, where the tab has been broken, simply cover the opening with adhesive
tape.
•
When you have finished playing a cassette, always put it back in its case.
•
Store your cassettes in a clean place, out of direct sunlight, where they will not be exposed to high
temperatures.
•
Avoid using 120-minute cassettes as they place unnecessary strain on the tape mechanism.
