Precautions for Battery Pack Operation

Operation of the battery pack

Charge the battery pack fully before using it for the first time.

Cautions on Using

Handling discs

Handling

When holding with both hands

Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs. Do not scratch the signal surface or let it get dirty. Do not attach paper or seals to discs. The player may be damaged if there is any exposed glue, etc., on discs. For rental discs in particular, extra labels are often attached to the discs. Check carefully for any exposed glue before using such discs.

When holding with one hand

Cleaning discs

Fingerprints or dust on discs may reduce sound or picture quality. Remove them by gently wiping the disc from the center toward the edges using a soft cloth.

Do not use benzene, thinner or other volatile chemicals. Do not use record spray or antistatic spray either. We recommend using the separately sold cleaning set to clean discs. For tough dirt, apply some water to a soft cloth, wring out thoroughly , wipe off the dirt, then wipe the disc with a dry cloth.

Irregular shaped discs Irregular shaped discs (heart-shaped discs, hexagonal discs, etc.) cannot be played on this player. Doing so could damage the player. Never use such discs.
