Additional Information
Notes on MDs
• If you try to force the shutter open, the disc may be
damaged. If the shutter opens, close it immediately
without touching the disc inside.
• Affix the label supplied with the disc only to the
specified label indentation. Do not affix the label
around the shutter or in other locations. Note that
the shape of the indentation depends on the disc.
• Wipe the disc cartridge with a dry cloth to remove
dirt.
• Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car
parked in direct sunlight.
• With the following kinds of CDs, you may
experience a reading failure or noise when recorded
on an MD:
— CDs with adhesive labels attached to them.
— Irregularly shaped CDs (for example, heart- or
star- shaped).
— CDs with printed text concentrated on one side
only.
— Old CDs.
— Scratched CDs.
— Dirty CDs.
— Warped CDs.
• If the following occurs during CD play or
recording, a reading error may occur or noise may
be produced in the recorded results:
— The system is bumped.
— The system is placed on an uneven or soft
surface.
— The system is located near a speaker, door, or
other source of vibration.
• If a reading error occurs, an extra track with no
sound may be created. This extra track can be
erased by using the editing function (see page 34).
Notes on CDs
• Before playing a CD, clean the CD surface with a
cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the center out.
• Do not play a CD with tape, stickers, or adhesives
on any of its surfaces as this may damage the
system.
• Do not use solvents.
• Do not expose the CDs to direct sunlight or heat
sources.
• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square,
star) cannot be played on this system. Attempting to
do so may damage the system. Do not use such
discs.
Note on CD-R/CD-RW play
Discs recorded on CD-R/CD-RW drives may not be
played back because of scratches, dirt, recording
condition or the drive’s characteristics. Besides, the
discs, which are not yet finalized at the end of
recording, cannot be played back.
Notes on speakers
• Although the rear side of the speakers heats up
during operation, this is not a malfunction.
If you continuously use this system at a large volume,
the temperature of the rear side of the speakers rises
considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not touch
the rear side of the speakers.
Cleaning the cabinet
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as thinner, benzene or alcohol.
