Proper Disc Storage
Handling Precautions
• If the surface is soiled, wipe gently with a soft, damp
(water only) cloth. When wiping discs, always move the
cloth from the center hole toward the outer edge.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzene, thinner,
static electricit prevention liquids or any other solvent.
• Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or adhesive labels to the disc.
• If the playing surface of a disc is soiled or scratched, the
recorder may decide that the disc is incompatible and
eject the disc tray, or it may fail to play the disc correctly.
Wipe any soiling off the playing surface with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the Pick Up Lens
• Never use commercially available cleaning discs. The
use of these discs can damage the lens.
• Request cleaning of the lens to the nearest Sharp
Authorized Service Center.
Warning of Dew Formation
• Dew may form on pick up lens or disc in the following
conditions:
• Immediately after a heater has been turned on.
• In a steamy or very humid room.
• When the recorder is suddenly moved from a cold
environment to a warm one.
When dew forms:It becomes difficult for the recorder to
read the signals on the disc and
prevents the recorder from operating
properly.
To remove dew: Take out the disc and leave the power
on for about 1 hour. The recorder will
again operate proprely when the dew
has evaporated.
