CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING
Location |
| Cleaning discs
install the player in a well ventilated focation where it will not
be exposed to high temperature or humidity.
Do not instail the player in a location which is exposed to direct
rays of the sun, or near stoves or radiators. Excessive heat can
adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. Installation
of the player in a damp or dusty environment may also result in
malfunction or accident. (Avoid installation near cookers etc.,
where the player may be exposed to smoke from oil, steam or
heat.)
Precautions regarding installation |
@ 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,
@ Such noise may be particularly noticeable when an indoor
antenna is used. In such cases, make use of an outdoor antenna,
or turn off power to the compact disc player.
@ Please place this unit on a level surface.
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. ff this occurs, allow the unit to stand for
about an hour or raise the room temperature gradually.
e@ 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 if a disc 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.
Never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile
solvents, since damage to the disc surface may result.
Storing discs
e 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 extremely hot.
e@ Always read and abide by the precautionary notes listed on disc
labels.
a
| CD lens cleaner
[ Cleaning the player and the magazine
The player's pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use,
but if for some reason it should malfunction due to soiling, ask
your nearest PIONEER authorized service center. Lens cleaners
for CD players are commercially available, but special care should
be exercised in their use since some may cause damage to the
fens.
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. 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.
