humid or abnormally heated places.
Cleaning CDs
• Dirty CDs can cause poor sound quality.
Always keep CDs clean by wiping them
gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge
toward the outer perimeter.
• If a CD 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
antistatic agents on CDs. Also, never clean
CDs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile

CD Lens Care
• When your CD lens gets dirty it can also
cause the system 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 of your

lens, refer to the ones accompanying the
lens cleaner.

Notes on CD-R/ CD-RW Disc
• CD-R discs that are recorded using personal
computers or other CD-R recorders may not
be played on this unit due to the difference
in recording platforms.
• Do not affix any type of labels to either side
(recordable or labeled side) of a CD-R disc as
this may result in the disc malfunctioning.
• To avoid damages to the CD-R disc, do not
open the disc compartment door while the
disc is being read. This may take more then
30 seconds.
• Do not load an unrecorded CD-R disc into
the unit.
Cassettes
• To protect your recordings from accidental
erasure on one or both sides of your
cassette, snap out the tab at the top of the
cassette. If you decide later to record on the
tape, seal the hole with a piece of adhesive
tape. (Refer to diagram on the right)
• Quit Slacking - A little bit of
slack in your tapes can cause
scratches on the tape, or worse
yet, the tape could break. If you
notice some slack in the tape,
use a pencil to tighten it up before you
insert it.
