Notes on Discs
On handling discs
• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge.
Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
• Use only round-shaped discs. If you use a special
shaped disc (e.g., star-shaped, heart-shaped, or
square-shaped, etc.), the player may be damaged.
• Do not use a disc with a seal attached on such as on
a used disc or rental disc.
On keeping discs
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts.
• After playing, store the disc in its case. If you put it
on top of another disc without the case, the disc may
be damaged.
On placing discs on the disc tray
Make sure the disc is positioned securely on the tray.
If not, the player or the disc may be damaged.
On cleaning
• If the disc is dirty with fingerprints or dust, it may
lessen the quality of the audio out.
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center out.
• Clean the disc with a soft cloth slightly moistened
with water, and remove moisture with a dry cloth.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, record
cleaners, or anti-static spray.
