Precautions for use
o
Do not use cracked discs because they could damage
the unit.
o
When writing something on the label side of a disc, use
a felt tip permanent marker. The use of a ballpoint pen
or other pen with a hard tip could damage the disc,
making it unplayable.
o
Never use commercially-available CD stabilizers. Doing
so could make the disc unplayable or damage the unit.
o
Never use CDs with irregular shapes, including heart-
shaped and octagonal discs because such discs could
damage the unit.
Handling precautions
o
Always load the disc with the label side up.
o
If the side of the disc that the signal is recorded on
(unlabeled side) has scratches, fingerprints or dirt on it,
for example, playback errors could occur. Please handle
discs with care.
o
To remove a disc from its case, press down on the cen-
ter of the case and hold the disc by its edges. Do not
touch the side of the disc that has the data encoded on
it (unlabeled side).
