Use only compact discs bearing the or
mark.
Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other
specially shaped compact discs.
Some CDs recorded in the CD-R/CD-RW mode
may not be usable.
Handling
• Compared to ordinary music CDs, CD-R and
CD-RW discs are both easily affected by high
temperature and humidity and some CD-R and
CD-RW discs may not be playable. Therefore,
do not leave them for a long time in the car.
• New discs may
have some
roughness
around the
edges. If such discs
are used, the player
may not work or the sound
may skip. Use a ball-point pen
or the like to remove any
roughness from the edge of the disc.
• Never stick labels on the surface of the
compact disc or mark the surface with a pencil
or pen.
• Never play a compact disc with any cellophane
tape or other glue on it or with peeling off
marks. If you try to play such a compact disc,
you may not be able to remove it from the CD
player or it may damage the CD player.
Ball-point pen
Roughness
• Do not use compact discs that have large
scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of
such discs may cause misoperation or
damage.
•To remove a compact disc from its storage
case, press down on the center of the case
and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the
edges.
• Do not use commercially available CD
protection sheets or discs equipped with
stabilizers, etc. These may damage the disc or
break the internal mechanism.
Storage
• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight
or any heat source.
• Do not expose compact discs to excess
humidity or dust.
• Do not expose compact discs to direct heat
from heaters.
Cleaning
•To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft
cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center
of the compact disc to the circumference.
• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially
available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner
to clean compact discs.
• After using special compact disc cleaner, let
the compact disc dry off well before playing it.
