• Do not spray an aerosol at or near the unit.
• Do not allow liquids to spill or objects to drop into any openings.
• Always use original packaging if it is necessary to transport the unit at any time.
●If this unit is used in a dusty environment, it may be necessary to have the unit serviced
at your local dealer periodically.
●It is not advisable to allow large deposits of dust to accumulate within the unit as it may

Handling Discs

the disc out. Hold it carefully by the edges as shown below
Insert the disc into the unit with the label of the disc facing UP. Gently wipe the disc using
a soft cloth from the centre to the outer direction to remove dust, ngerprints or any other
particles on the disc surface. Never use chemicals, such as record sprays, anti-static
sprays, benzene or thinners to clean the CD. These chemicals can damage the disc
surface permanently.

cause the laser pick-up skip in the future play. Do not place stickers or write anything on
the disc.
