CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING
PRECAUTIONS REGARDING INSTALLATION
e Placing and using the compact disc player for long periods on
heat-generating sources such as amplifiers will affect
performance. Avoid placing the player on. heat-generating
sources.
* install this compact disc player as far as possible from tuners
and TV sets. A compact disc player installed in close proximity
to such equipment, may cause noise or degradation of the
picture. .
e Such noise may be particularly noticeable when an indoor
antenna is used. In such a case, make use of an outdoor
antenna, or turn off power to the compact disc player.
CONDENSATION
° When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously
cold surroundings or when the room temperature rises sharply,
condensation may form inside, and the unit may not be able to
attain its full performance. In cases like this, allow the unit to
stand for about an hour or raise the room temperature
gradually.
CARE OF DISCS
° With this player, use discs which display the mark shown
below. (Optical audio digital discs.)
olise
DIGITAL AUDIO
* When holding discs, do not touch their signal surfaces. Hold
by the edges, or by one edge and the center hole.
e Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the label surfaces. Also,
do not scratch or damage the label.
e Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use
damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
CLEANING DISCS
e The presence of fingerprints or smudges on the surface of the
disc will not directly affect the recorded signals, but depending
on the degree of contamination, the brightness of the light
reflected from the signal surfaces may be reduced, causing
degradation of sound quality. Always keep your discs clean by
wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge
toward the outer periphery.
e Ifadisc becomes very dirty, dip a soft cloth in water, and after
wringing it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and then
remove any water drops with another soft, dry cloth.
* Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on
discs. Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other
volatile solvents, since damage to the disc surface may result.
STORING DISCS (Storing without using the 6-
disc magazine)
¢ Discs are made of the same kinds of plastic used for
conventional analog audio records. Be careful not to allow
discs to warp; always store discs in their cases vertically,
avoiding locations with high heat or humidity, or extremely
low temperatures. Avoid leaving discs in cars, since the seat
of a car in direct sunlight can become unbelievably hot.
° Always read and abide by the precautionary notes listed on
disc labels.
*® Do not store discs by leaving them in the single-disc magazine.
CLEANING THE PLAYER AND THE MAGAZINE
To clean the PLAYER and the MAGAZINE wipe with a soft, dry
cloth. For stubborn dirt, wet a soft cloth with a mild detergent
solution, wring well, then wipe off the dirt. Also use a dry cloth to
wipe the surface dry. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene
and thinner which are harmful to the unit.
