Disc Handling

• Dirt, dust, scratches and warping disc will
cause non operation.

• Do not place stickers on disc or scratch disc.

• Do not warp discs.

• A disc should always be kept in its case
when not in use to prevent damage.

Do not place discs in the following places:

•

1. Direct sunlight.

2. Dirty, dusty and damp areas.

3. Near car heaters.

4. Car seats or dashboard.

Preparing New Discs with Rough Spots

A new disc may have rough edges on its inside
and outside edges. If a disc with rough edges is
used, the proper setting will not be performed
and the player will not play the disc. Therefore,
remove the rough edges in advance by using a
ball point pen or pencil as shown. To do this,
press the side of the pen or pencil against the
inside and outside edges of the disc.

Disc Cleaning

Use a dry soft cloth to wipe the surface. If the
disc is quite dirty, use a soft cloth slightly moist
with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. Never use sol­vents such as benzine, thinner or conventional
record cleaners as they may mar the surface of
the disc.

Note: A disc may become somewhat scratched
(although not enough to make it unusable)
depending on handling and conditions in the
usage environment.
