How to remove the disc
How to hold the disc
<
Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side
uppermost. (Compact discs can be played or recorded only on
one side.)
<
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the
center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by
the edges.
<
Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface radially (from
the center hole outward towards the outer edge) with a soft,
dry cloth:
<
Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays
or fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals
will do irreparable damage to the disc's plastic surface.
<
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid dust
and scratches that could cause the laser pickup to "skip."
<
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and
temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures will warp the disc.
<
Do not play any disc that is warped, deformed or damaged.
Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to the playing
mechanisms.
<
CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of
heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important that
they are not stored in a location where direct sunlight will fall
on them, and which is away from sources of heat such as
radiators or heat-generating electrical devices.
<
Printable CD-R and CD-RW discs aren't recommended, as the
label side might be sticky and damage the unit.
<
Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do
not use any protective coating spray.
<
Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information on
the label side. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as
this may cause damage to the recorded side.
<
Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD
stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms and
cause them to malfunction.
<
Do not use irregular shape CDs (octagonal, heart shaped,
business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit:
<
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a CD-
R/CD-RW disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or
contact the disc manufacturer directly.
