7. Care and maintenance
Cleaning the pickup lens
Dust on the pickup lens can lead to hacking playback and
disturbed functioning.
• Open the CD cover and blow away any dust with the
help of a spray tin filled with compressed air, normally
used for cleaning cameras and objective lenses.
• There are also special CDs which can be purchased and
used for cleaning the pickup lens.
Cleaning the player
• Use a soft cloth moistened with luke-warm water and
wrung out.
• Never use alcohol, petrol or other strong solvents as
they can destroy the plastic surface.
• It is important that no liquid comes into contact with the
CD player.
Consider this if the player is exposed to
temperature change
Condensation
on the components within the laser pickup
can temporarily impair the player’s functions.
Condensation can occur under certain circumstances:
• When you bring the player into a warm room from
outdoors or if it is stored in a cold room which is quickly
warmed up.
• During summer if you take the player to a warm or
damp place away from an air conditioned location e.g.
a car or room.
If condensation occurs:
• Wait 1 – 2 hours to allow the player to adjust to the
environment's temperature before using. Open the CD
cover to quicken the process.
Warning!
Do not expose the player to drops or splashes
from liquids and do not place objects containing liquids on
the player, e.g. vases or soft drinks.
Remember that the player needs ventilation to
prevent overheating.
