Handling and care of discs

Some basic precautions are necessary when
handling your discs.

Built-in drive and care

! Use only conventional, fully circular discs.

Do not use shaped discs.

! Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or

otherwise damaged discs as they may da-
mage the built-in drive.

! Use 12-cm discs. Do not use 8-cm discs or

an adapter for 8-cm discs.

! When using discs that can be printed on

label surfaces, check the instructions and
the warnings of the discs. Depending on
the discs, inserting and ejecting may not
be possible. Using such discs may result in
damage to this equipment.

! Do not touch the recorded surface of the

discs.

! Store discs in their cases when not in use.
! Avoid leaving discs in excessively hot envir-

onments including under direct sunlight.

! Do not attach labels, write on or apply che-

micals to the surface of the discs.

! Do not attach commercially available labels

or other materials to the discs.
— The discs may warp making the disc un-

playable.

— The labels may come off during play-

back and prevent ejection of the discs,
which may result in damage to the
equipment.

! To clean a disc, wipe it with a soft cloth,

moving outward from the centre.

! Condensation may temporarily impair the

built-in drive

’s performance. Leave it to ad-

just to the warmer temperature for about
one hour. Also, wipe any damp discs with a
soft cloth.

! Playback of discs may not be possible be-

cause of disc characteristics, disc format,
recorded application, playback environ-
ment, storage conditions and so on.

! Road shocks may interrupt disc playback.
! Read the precautions for discs before

using them.

Ambient conditions for playing

ture cutout protects this product by switch-
