Care and Maintenance:
• Always turn off the unit after use.
• Keep the unit away from magnetic objects, water or heat sources.
• Use a clean soft cloth moistened with lukewarm water to clean the cabinet.
Never use chemical cleaners that could damage the finish of the unit.
• Never touch the CD pickup and lens. If fingerprints get on the pickup lens,
clean it gently with a commercial lens cleaner.
• Disconnect the unit from any power sources before cleaning.
• To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre of the case
and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
• Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc’s recorded surface
with a soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves
to collect dust and microscopic debris so gently wiping with a soft cloth should
remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of
the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on
reproduction quality.
• Never use chemicals such as record sprays, anti-static sprays, benzene or
thinners to clean compact discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the
disc’s surface.
• Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious scratches
that could cause the Laser pickup to skip.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for
extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.
• Do not stick paper or write anything with a ballpoint pen on the label side of
the disc.
