How to remove the disc
How to hold the disc
<
Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side up.
(Compact discs can be played or recorded only on one side.)
<
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the
center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by
the edges.
<
CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of
heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important
that they are not stored in a location with direct sunlight and
keep your discs away from sources of heat such as radiators
or heat-generating electrical devices.
<
Printable discs aren’t recommended because the label side
might be sticky (or contain glue), which will damage the unit.
<
Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do
not use any protective coating spray.
<
Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write information on
the label side of a disc. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped
pen, as this may cause damage to the recorded side of the
disc.
<
Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD
stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms and
cause them to malfunction.
<
Do not use irregular shape CDs (octagonal, heart shaped,
business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit:
<
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of any
disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or contact
the disc manufacturer directly.
<
Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface from the
center hole outward towards the outer edge with a soft, dry,
lint-free cloth:
<
Never use chemicals such as record (LP) sprays, antistatic
sprays or fluids, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such
chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic
surface.
<
Discs should be returned to their cases after each use to avoid
dust and scratches that may eventually cause your disc to
skip.
<
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high
temperatures for extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures will warp the disc.
<
Do not play any disc that is warped, scratched, deformed or
damaged. Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to
the playback mechanism.
