by
a
special
coating,
it is still advisable to treat the discs with care:

Never
leave
discs
lying
around,
put
them
back
in
their
holders
Immediately after use.
• Never write on the printed side!
• Do not attach any stickers on the disc.

surface
of

clean.
Use
a

lint-free
cloth and always wipe the disc in a straight line from center to
edge. You may breath lightly on the disc first.

SYMPTOMS AND THEIR LIKELY CAUSES
Insufficient
familiarity
with
the
combination
of
a
new
product
and
new
discs
may
lead
to
faults
arising
during
use.
These
are
generally
caused
by
simple
errors
in
operation
or
external
factors.
It
is
perhaps
useful
to
check
the
points
listed
below
and
where
possible remedy these before taking your player for repair.
- The transit clamps have not been removed.
-
Condensation
has
formed
on
the
lens
of
the
laser
due
to
a
dramatic
change
in
temperature.
This
will
disappear
automati
cally after some time.
- There is a foreign object in the disc tray.
-
The disc has not been inserted with the printed side up orthere
is no disc in the tray.
- The disc is dirty, badly scratched or warped.
-
The
player
has
been
connected
to
the
PHONO
jack
of
the
amplifier.
If the fault remains, try to clear it by switching the player off and on.
If this also fails to help, do not continue experimenting, but remove
the plug from the outlet and consult your dealer.
Certain faults may be caused by a disc. In order to help determine
the
precise
cause,
take
the
disc
with
which
the
fault
occurred
with
you when you take the player for repair.
Under no circumstances should you repair the player yourself,
as this will invalidate the guarantee!
