Taking care of CDs
This unit has been designed only to reproduce the CDs bearing the or mark.
Other discs cannot be played back.
How to handle CDs
When removing a CD from its case, press down the center holder of
the case and lift the CD out, holding it by the edges.
• Always hold the CD by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When storing a CD into its case, gently insert the CD onto the
center holder (with the printed surface facing up).
• Make sure to store CDs into the cases after use.
To keep CDs clean
A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with
a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
To play new CDs
New CDs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges.
If such a CD is used, this unit may reject the CD.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point
pen, etc.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert any CD of unusual shape – like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a
malfunction.
• Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place them in a place subject to high
temperature and humidity. Do not leave them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.)
to clean CDs.
About mistracking:
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads. This does not damage the
unit and the CD, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop CD play while driving on such rough roads.
