control. Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction. If this 
happens, leave the power on with no disc in the unit until normal 
playback is possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any condensation on 
the transmitter with a soft cloth before operating the unit.

Care of compact discs

„

Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking 
can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. 
Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your 
CD collection and player.

z

  Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label 

side from which signals are read. Do not mark this surface.

z

  Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive 

moisture.

z

  Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on 

the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does 
not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight 
out from the center, along the radius.
