Care and Maintenance
Guidelines
• Do not touch the laser lens.
• Temperature changes can cause condensation to form on the laser lens. If condensation forms on the lens, leave the disc compartment
door open (with no disc) for an hour to remove condensation.
• Exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat (such as inside a car parked in the sun) can cause damage or malfunction.
• To prevent dust from reaching internal parts, keep the disc compartment door closed when not using the player (except when necessary
to remove condensation).
• Do not place objects on top of the player.
Cleaning the Laser Lens
It’s important that you periodically clean the laser lens, especially when dust or
fingerprints are evident. Not cleaning the laser lens can result in inferior sound
quality or no sound at all. To clean the lens, follow these directions:
1 Turn off the unit’s power and/or disconnect the AC power adapter.
2 Open the disc compartment and remove the disc (if there is one).
3 Clean the lens with a soft brush or use an air blower brush designed for cameras.
4 If you still are not able to remove dirt particles, moisten a cotton swab with
isopropyl alcohol and gently apply to the face of the laser lens, rubbing gently
until all traces of dirt are removed.
