Handling CDs
Hold a CD by its edges. Avoid touching the re-
corded side of the disc. To remove a CD from its
storage case, press down on the center retention
mechanism of the case and lift the disc out.
Cleaning CDs
Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe o any ngerprints and
dusts from the playing surface of the disc. Wipe in a
straight line radially from the center to the outside
edge of the disc. Small dust particles and light
stains will not aect playback quality.
Never use chemicals such as record sprays, anti-
static sprays, benzene, or thinners to clean your
CDs.
To reduce the risk of scratches, always put CDs
back in their case after use.
Do not subject CDs to prolonged exposure to di-
rect sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures.
Do not place stickers or labels on either side of
the CD.
Cleaning the CD Player Lens
A dirty lens can cause CD playback to skip. If the
lens is very dirty, the CD may not work at all. Unplug
the power supply, open the CD door, and clean the
lens as follows:
For Dust or Dry Particles - use a camera lens
brush/blower to blow on the lens a few times.
Then, wipe the lens gently with the brush, and
blow on the lens once more.
For Fingerprints - use a dry cotton swab to wipe
the lens in a straight line radially from the center
to the outside edge.
