Care and Maintenance
Handling Compact Discs
• Do not touch the signal surfaces. Hold by the
edges, or by one edge and the hole.
• Do not affix labels or adhesive tape to the
label surfaces. Also, do not scratch or damage
the label.
• Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player.
Do not use damaged (cracked or warped)
discs.
Cleaning Compact Discs
• Dirty discs can cause poor sound quality.
Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently
with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward
the outer perimeter.
• If a disc becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in
water, wring it out well, wipe the dirt away
gently, and then remove any water drops with
a 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
which may cause damage to the disc surface.
CD Lens Care
When your CD lens gets dirty it can also cause
the unit to output poor sound quality. To clean
the lens you will need to purchase a CD lens
cleaner which can maintain the output sound
quality. For instructions on cleaning the CD lens,
refer to the ones accompanying the lens care.
Cleaning the Exterior
Prior to cleaning the exterior, be sure to unplug
the power cord from the AC power outlet. Wipe
the exterior with a soft, clean, and slightly water-
dampened cloth.
Precautions
• Never open the cabinet under any
circumstances. Any repairs or internal
adjustments should be made only by a trained
technician.
• Warning: Never operate this product with the
cabinet removed.
• The CD player of this unit uses a laser to read
the music on the disc. The laser mechanism
corresponds to the cartridge and stylus of a
record player. Although this product
incorporates a laser pick-up lens, it is
completely safe when operated according to
directions.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player.
Do not use damaged, warped or cracked discs.
• Do not touch the pick-up lens which is located
inside the disc compartment. Also, to keep
dust from collecting on the pick-up lens, do
not leave the compartment door open for an
extended period of time.
• The apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing and that no objects
filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be
placed on the apparatus.
