CD player and CD handling

The lens may cloud over when the set is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings. Playing a CD is not possible then. Leave the CD player in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

To take the CD out of its box easily, press the centre spindle while

lifting the CD.

Always pick up the CD by the edge and put it back in its box after use.

To clean the CD, wipe it off in a straight line from the center towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. A cleaning agent may damage the disc!

Never write on a CD or attach stickers to it.
