Caution on disc used
Usable discs:
This unit is capable of playing back the Audio CD discs, CD-R/CD-RW (CD-
DA, MP3/WMA) discs and discs carrying the marking. Other discs
cannot be played. 8 cm single CDs can be played as they are; do not use a
commercially-available single CD adapter.
÷ Certain CD-R/CD-RW (CD-DA, MP3/WMA) discs may not be played
due to recording conditions of the discs.
Handling:
Hold compact discs so that you do not touch the playing surface.
Do not attach paper or tape to either the playing side or the label side of
compact discs.
Never play a cracked or warped disc:
During playback, the disc rotates at high speed in the player. Therefore, to
avoid danger, never use a cracked or deformed disc or a disc repaired with
tape or adhesive agent.
Cleaning
If fingerprints or foreign matter become attached
to the disc, lightly wipe the disc with a soft cotton
cloth (or similar) from the center of the disc
outwards in a radial manner.
