Disc Cleaning
Use a dry soft cloth to wipe the surface. If
the disc is quite dirty, using a soft cloth
slightly dip with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.
Never use solvents such as benzine,
thinner or conventional record cleaners as
they may mar the surface of the disc.
Note
A disc may become somewhat scratched
(although not enough to make it unusable)
depending on the way it is handled and
conditions in the usage environment. Note
these scratches are not an indication of any
problem with the player.
Preparing New Discs with Rough Spots
A new disc may have rough edges on its inside
and outside edges. If a disc with rough edges is
used, the proper setting will not be performed
and the player will not play the disc. Therefore,
remove the rough edges in advance by using a
ballpoint pen or pencil as shown on the right. To
remove the rough edges, press the side of the
pen or pencil against the inside and outside
edges of the disc.
