CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
• Disconnect the system from AC power before cleaning the exterior of the unit with a soft dust cloth.
HANDLING CDS
• Do not touch the signal surfaces. Hold by the edges, or by one edge and the hole.
• Do not affix labels or adhesive tape to the label surfaces. Also, do not scratch or damage the label.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
CLEANING CDS
• Dirty discs can cause poor sound quality. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from
the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
• If a disc 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 discs. Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner,
or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
TAPE CARE
• Do not expose tapes to sunlight or store in hot places. High temperatures may warp the shell or damage the
tape itself.
• Keep cassettes in their boxes when not in use.
• Cassette tapes can be erased by magnetic fields produced by magnets, electric motors, electrical transformers, and other devices. Keep tapes away from magnets and magnetic fields.
CLEANING THE TAPE HEADS
Iron oxide particles from the magnetic tape can build up on the parts that come in contact with the tape. These
deposits can cause incomplete erasure, muffled playback sound, and might prevent automatic stop.
To clean a cassette deck, open the compartment door, press PLAY and gently clean the heads, capstan, and
pinch wheel with a head cleaner.
Always unplug the power cord before cleaning, and allow 30 minutes drying time after using a liquid cleaner.
Clean heads after every 25 hours of use.
• Demagnetize the head occasionally with a head demagnetizing cassette (available from many audio equipment stores).
• Never use any metal objects on or near the tape heads.
• Do not allow any cleaning material to fall into the tape assembly.

different format, erase all the data on the CD-RW completely before recording on it.)
•You can play back CD-R or CD-RW like an audio CD.
• Some CD-R or CD-RW may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or
stain on them, or if the player lens is dirty.
• The reflection factor of CD-RW is lower than that of other CDs, possibly causing CD-RW to take longer time
to read.
• CD-R and CD-RW of MP3 format cannot be played back.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
• Disconnect the system from AC power before cleaning the exterior of the unit with a soft dust cloth.
HANDLING CDS
• Do not touch the signal surfaces. Hold by the edges, or by one edge and the hole.
• Do not affix labels or adhesive tape to the label surfaces. Also, do not scratch or damage the label.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
CLEANING CDS
• Dirty discs can cause poor sound quality. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from
the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
• If a disc 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 discs. Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
TAPE CARE
• Do not expose tapes to sunlight or store in hot places. High temperatures may warp the shell or damage the
tape itself.
• Keep cassettes in their boxes when not in use.
• Cassette tapes can be erased by magnetic fields produced by magnets, electric motors, electrical transformers, and other devices. Keep tapes away from magnets and magnetic fields.
CLEANING THE TAPE HEADS
Iron oxide particles from the magnetic tape can build up on the parts that come in contact with the tape. These
deposits can cause incomplete erasure, muffled playback sound, and might prevent automatic stop.
To clean a cassette deck, open the compartment door, press PLAY
pinch wheel with a head cleaner.
Always unplug the power cord before cleaning, and allow 30 minutes drying time after using a liquid cleaner.
Clean heads after every 25 hours of use.
• Demagnetize the head occasionally with a head demagnetizing cassette (available from many audio equipment stores).
• Never use any metal objects on or near the tape heads.
• Do not allow any cleaning material to fall into the tape assembly.
and gently clean the heads, capstan, and

• Some CD-R or CD-RW may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or
stain on them, or if the player lens is dirty.
• The reflection factor of CD-RW is lower than that of other CDs, possibly causing CD-RW to take longer time
to read.
• CD-R and CD-RW of MP3 format cannot be played back.
Caution for DualDisc playback
