MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the unit

HandlingCDs
Your CD player has been especially designed for the reproduction of compact discs bearing
the CD mark. No other discs should be loaded into the player.
Always place the disc in tray with the label facing up.
Although compact discs are impervious to wear during play, damage to the surface of a disc
through improper handling will result in playback irregularities.
To preserve your compact discs, please handle them with care.
Although minute dust particles and fingerprints should have no effect on playback, you
should keep the serface of the recorded side of your discs clean by wiping the disc with a
clean, dry, lint-free soft cloth with straight movements from the centre outwards.
Never use record cleaners, record sprays, antistatic sprays, liquids nor chemical based
liquids to clean the surface of a disc. They may in fact irreparably damage the disc's plastic
surface.
Always return the disc to its protective plastic case when not using it. Avoid exposing discs
to direct sunlight, excessive temperatures or high humidity for extended periods of time. Do
not write on the label side of the disc with a ball/point pen as this may scratch the disc.
