Care of DVD/SACD/CD discs
DVD/SACD/CD 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 DVD/SACD/CD collection and player.
"
Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label side from which
signals are read. Do not mark this surface.
"
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive moisture.
"
Always hold the DVD/SACD/CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on the
DVD/SACD/CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a DVD/SACD/CD is dirty or
does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out from the
center, along the radius.
"
Ensure the unit is positioned in a well-ventilated area with at least the following
amount of free space around the top: 6" (15 cm), sides; 4" (10 cm), and the back:
1-3/8" (3.5 cm).
"
Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibra-
tion.
"
Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong mag-
netic fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/
electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles,
etc.) which generate electrical noise.
"

"
Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures

atures.

ty.
