Disc Precautions
Be Careful of Scratches and Dust
• BD, DVD and CD discs are sensitive to dust, fi ngerprints and
especially scratches. A scratched disc may not be able to be
played back. Handle discs with care and store them in a safe
place.
Proper Disc Storage
Place the disc in the center of the
disc case and store the case and
disc upright.
Avoid storing discs in locations
subject to direct sunlight, close to
heating appliances or in locations
of high humidity.
Do not drop discs or subject
them to strong vibrations or
impacts.
Avoid storing discs in locations
where there are large amounts of
dust or moisture.
Handling Precautions
• If the surface is soiled, wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only)
cloth. When wiping discs, always move the cloth from the center
hole toward the outer edge.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzene, thinner, static
electricity prevention liquids or any other solvent.
• Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or adhesive labels to the disc.
• If the playing surface of a disc is soiled or scratched, the Player
may decide that the disc is incompatible and eject the disc tray,
or it may fail to play the disc correctly. Wipe any dirt off the playing
surface with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the Pick Up Lens
• Never use commercially available cleaning discs. The use of these
discs can damage the lens.
• Request the nearest service center approved by Sharp to clean
the lens.
Warnings about dew formation
• Condensation may form on pick up lens or disc in the following
conditions:
— Immediately after a heater has been turned on.
— In a steamy or very humid room.
— When the Player is suddenly moved from a cold environment to
a warm one.
When condensation forms:
It becomes diffi cult for the Player to read the signals on the disc
and prevents the Player from operating properly.
To remove condensation:
Take out the disc and leave the Player with the power off until
the condensation disappears. Using the Player when there is
condensation may cause malfunction.
