IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

TASCAM CD-GT2

Handling of compact discs

The CD-GT2 has been designed for the playback of CD-DA
(standard audio) format discs. In addition to ordinary 5-inch
and 3-inch CDs, it can also play properly recorded CD-R and
CD-RW discs.

Always insert a compact discs into the unit with its label
facing upward.
To remove a disc from its case, press down on the center of
the disc holder, then lift the disc out, holding it carefully by
the edges.

Avoid getting fingerprints on the signal side (the non-label
side). Grime and dust may cause skipping, so keep discs
clean and store them in their cases when not being played.
To clean the signal side of a disc, wipe gently with a soft
dry cloth from the center towards the outside edge.

Do not use any record spray, anti-static solutions, benzene,
paint thinner or other chemical agents to clean CDs as they

could damage the delicate playing surface. It may cause
CDs to become unplayable.
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid
serious scratches that could cause the laser pickup to “skip.”
Keep discs away from direct sunlight and places of high heat
and humidity. If left in such places, warping could result.
Do not affix any labels or stickers to the label side of the
disc. Do not write on the disc with a ballpoint pen.
Do not insert discs that have adhesive remaining from tape
or stickers that have been removed. If they are inserted
into the player, they could stick to the internal mechanism,
requiring removal by a technician.
Do not use cracked discs.
Only use circular compact discs. Avoid using promotional,
discs and other discs that are not circular.

The CD-GT2 cannot play unfinalized CD-R/RW discs.
Music discs with copy control, a copy-protection system,
have been released from several record companies in an
attempt to protect their copyrights. Since some of these
discs do not comply with the CD specifications, they might
not be playable on the CD-GT2.
