COMPACT DISC CARE
Dirt, dust, scratches and warpage can cause a deterioration in the sound or intermittent skipping 
some tracks during play. 
 
• This unit has been designed to play compact
discs bearing the identification logo shown on 
the left. No other discs can be played. 
• Do not use non-conventional discs such as
heart- shaped, octagonal discs, etc. 
The player could be damaged. 
• Fingerprints and dust should be carefully
wiped off the signal surface of the disc 
(glossy side) with a soft cloth. 
Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to 
the outside of the disc. Unlike conventional 
records, the compact disc has no grooves to 
collect dust and debris. Small dust particles 
will have no effect on reproduction quality. 
• Do not insert a disc which is cracked into the
unit.
• Do not apply paper or write anything on the
surface of the disc.
• To prevent warping the disc, do not expose
it to direct sunlight, high humidity or high 
temperatures for extended periods of time. 
• Never use chemicals such as record cleaning
sprays, antistatic sprays or fluids, benzene 
or thinner to clean compact discs. 
These chemicals will permanently damage 
the plastic surface of the disc. 
• When not using the disc player for extended
periods of time, remove the compact disc and 
return it to the plastic storage case. This will 
protect the disc from dust and exposure to 
the sun.
