Viewing the TV screen

• To view the TV screen comfortably, the recommended viewing position is from four to seven times the screen’s vertical length away from the system.

• View the TV screen in moderate light, as viewing the TV screen in poor light strains your eyes. Watching the screen continuously for long periods of time can also strain your eyes.

Volume adjustment

• Adjust the volume so as not to trouble your neighbours. Sound carries very easily at night time. Therefore, closing the windows or using headphones is suggested.

• When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.

• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level section is suddenly played.

Overloading

This system is designed to operate on a 220–240 V AC supply only. Take care not to connect too many appliances to the same mains socket as this could result in fire or electric shock.

Heat

Do not touch the surface of the system. It remains hot, even after the system has been turned off for some time.

Corrosion

If you use this system near the seashore, salt may corrode metal parts of the system and cause internal damage or fire. It may also shorten the life of the system. Steps should be taken to reduce the humidity and moderate the temperature of the area where the system is located.

Precautions

Safety

• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet (mains), even if the unit itself has been turned off. To disconnect the system completely, pull the plug from the AC power source (mains).

• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet (mains) if you do not intend to use it for an extended period of time.

LCD Screen

• Although the LCD screen is made with high-precision technology and 99.99% or more of the pixels are effective, black dots may appear or bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen. This is a structural property of the LCD panel and is not a malfunction.

• Do not expose the LCD screen surface to the sun. Doing so may damage the screen surface.

• Do not push or scratch the front filter, or place objects on top of this system. The image may be uneven or the LCD panel may be damaged.

• If this system is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in the picture or the picture may become dark. This does not indicate a failure. These phenomena disappear as the temperature rises.

• Ghosting may occur when still pictures are displayed continuously. It may disappear after a few moments.

• The screen and cabinet get warm when this system is in use. This is not a malfunction.

• The LCD contains a small amount of liquid crystal and mercury. The fluorescent tube used in this system also contains mercury. Follow your local ordinances and regulations for disposal.

Fluorescent lamp

This system uses a special fluorescent lamp as its light source. If the screen image becomes dark, flickers, or does not appear, the fluorescent lamp has worn out and should be replaced. For replacement, consult qualified service personnel.

Installing the system

• Do not install the system in places subject to extreme temperature, for example in direct sunlight, or near a radiator, or heating vent or excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or shock. If the system is exposed to extreme temperature, the system may overheat and cause deformation of the casing or cause the system to malfunction.

• To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling.

• Do not install optional components too close to the system. Keep optional components at least 30 cm away from the system. If a VCR is installed in front of the system or beside the system, the picture may become distorted.

• Picture distortion and/or noisy sound may occur if the system is positioned in close proximity to any equipment emitting electromagnetic radiation.

• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat buildup.

Page 9

• Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation slots.

• Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.

• Keep the unit and discs away from equipment with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or large loudspeakers.

• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, moisture may condense inside this system and cause damage to the lenses. When you first install the unit, or when you move it from a cold to a warm location, wait for about 30 minutes before operating the unit.

Handling and cleaning the screen surface/cabinet of the system

The screen surface is finished with a special coating to prevent strong light reflections. To avoid material degradation or screen coating degradation, observe the following precautions.

• Do not push on the screen, scratch it with a hard object, or throw anything at it. The screen may be damaged.

• Do not touch the display panel after operating the system continuously for a long period as the display panel becomes hot.

• We recommend that the screen surface be touched as little as possible.

• To remove dust from the screen surface/cabinet, wipe gently with a soft cloth. If dust is persistent, wipe with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted mild detergent solution. You can wash and repeatedly use the soft cloth.

• Never use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline/acid cleaner, scouring powder, or volatile solvent, such as alcohol, benzene, thinner or insecticide. Using such materials or maintaining prolonged contact with rubber or vinyl materials may result in damage to the screen surface and cabinet material. If you have any questions or problems concerning your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

• The ventilation holes can accumulate dust over time. To ensure proper ventilation, we recommend removing the dust periodically (once a month) using a vacuum cleaner.

On placement

At high volume, over long periods of time, the cabinet becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfunction. However, touching the cabinet should be avoided.

On cleaning discs, disc/lens cleaner

Do not use a commercially available cleaning disc or disc/lens cleaner (wet or spray type). These may cause apparatus to malfunction.

On moving the system

When you carry the system, use the following procedure to protect the inner mechanism.

1 Press (input select) repeatedly to select “DVD.” 2 Make sure that the disc is removed from the system. 3 Press x (stop) and 1 on the system simultaneously.

“MECHA LOCK” appears in the front panel display. The lift unit is now set in the shipping position (down).

4 Remove the AC power cord (mains lead) from the

wall outlet (mains).

Notes about the discs

On handling discs

• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the surface.

• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as the temperature may rise considerably inside the car.

• After playing, store the disc in its case.

On cleaning

• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the centre out.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

This system can only play back a standard circular disc. Using neither standard nor circular discs (e.g., card, heart, or star shape) may cause a malfunction.

Do not use a disc that has a commercially available accessory attached, such as a label or ring.

Notes about CD-R/CD-RW/DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD+R/ DVD+RW

In some cases, CD-R/CD-RW/DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD+R/ DVD+RW cannot be played on this system due to the recording quality or physical condition of the disc, or the characteristics of the recording device and authoring software. The disc will not play if it has not been correctly finalized. For more information, see the operating instructions for the recording device. Note that discs created in the Packet Write format cannot be played. Note that some playback functions may not work with some DVD+Rs/DVD+RWs, even if they have been correctly finalized. In this case, view the disc by normal playback. Also some DATA CDs/DATA DVDs created in Packet Write format cannot be played.

Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies

This product is designed to play back discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies are marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by this product.

Note on DualDisc

A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD recorded material on one side with digital audio material on the other side. However, since the audio material side does not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this product is not guaranteed.

About Multi Session CD

• This system can play Multi Session CDs when an MP3 audio track is contained in the first session. Any subsequent MP3 audio tracks recorded in later sessions can also be played back.

• This system can play Multi Session CDs when a JPEG image file is contained in the first session. Any subsequent JPEG image files recorded in later sessions can also be played back.

• If audio tracks and images in music CD format or video CD format are recorded in the first session, only the first session will be played back.

About the Super Audio CD

Super Audio CD is a new high-quality audio disc standard where music is recorded in the DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format (conventional CDs are recorded in the PCM format). The DSD format, using a sampling frequency 64 times higher than that of a conventional CD, and with 1-bit quantization, achieves both a wide frequency range and a wide dynamic range across the audible frequency range, and so provides music reproduction extremely faithful to the original sound.

Types of Super Audio CDs

There are two types of discs, depending on the Super Audio CD layer and CD layer combination.

• Super Audio CD layer: A high-density signal layer for Super Audio CD

•CD layer*

: A layer that is readable by a

conventional CD player

Single layer disc (a disc with a single Super Audio CD layer)

Super Audio CD layer

Hybrid disc* (a disc with an Super Audio CD layer and a CD layer)

*1You can play the CD layer on a conventional CD player. *2 Since both layers are on one side, it is not necessary to turn the

disc over.

*3To select a layer, see “Selecting a playback layer for a Super

Audio CD (Super Audio CD only)” (page 33).

Note on playback operations of DVDs and VIDEO CDs

Some playback operations of DVDs and VIDEO CDs may be intentionally set by software producers. Since this system plays DVDs and VIDEO CDs according to the disc contents the software producers designed, some playback features may not be available. Also, refer to the instructions supplied with the DVDs or VIDEO CDs.

Sony’s long-term involvement in surround technology (and the vast amounts of acoustic data accumulated as a result) has led to the development of all-new processing method and advanced DSP to handle this task effectively, which we call SForce PRO Front Surround. Compared with previous front surround technologies, S-Force PRO Front Surround reproduces a more convincing sense of distance and space, resulting in a true surround sound experience without the need for rear speakers.

Notes

• When the system receives DVD multi-channel signals, the default AUTO setting is FRONT SURROUND.

• When the system receives CDs or DATA CDs, the AUTO setting is 2CH STEREO.

• When using headphones, the sound field is HP 2CH regardless of source.

• When the selected input is other than DVD, the default AUTO setting is 2CH STEREO.

• The sound field for Super Audio CDs is 2CH STEREO only.

• The surround effect might be difficult to hear depending on the type of source signals (e.g., digital stereo signals, digital multi signals, etc.) except for DVD multi-channel signals.

DATA CDs and DATA DVDs that the system can play

Playback of DATA CDs (CD-ROMs/CD-Rs/CDRWs) and DATA DVDs (DVD-ROMs/DVD-Rs/ DVD-RWs/DVD+Rs/DVD+RWs) on this system is subject to certain conditions:

– With DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that contain DivX

video files in addition to MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files, the system plays only the DivX video

files. However, this system only plays DATA CDs whose logical format is ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2 or Joliet, and DATA DVDs of Universal Disk Format (UDF). Refer to the instructions supplied with the disc drives and the recording software (not supplied) for details on the recording format.

About playback order of data on DATA CDs or DATA DVDs

See “Playback order of MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files” (page 61). Note that the playback order may not be applicable, depending on the software used for creating the DivX video file, or if there are more than 200 albums and 600 DivX video files in each album.

Note

The system may not be able to play some DATA CDs/DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write format.

DivX video files that the system can play

The system can play data that is recorded in DivX format, and which has the extension “.AVI,” or “.DIVX.” The system will not play files with the extension “.AVI” or “.DIVX” if they do not contain a DivX video.

Tip

For details about playable MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files on DATA CDs/DATA DVDs, see “MP3 audio track or JPEG image file that the system can play” (page 61).

Notes

• The system may not play a DivX video file when the file has been combined from two or more DivX video files.

• The system cannot play a DivX video file of size more than 720 (width) × 576 (height) or 2GB.

• The system cannot play some DivX video files that are longer than 3 hours.

• Depending on the DivX video file, the picture may pause or be unclear. In which case, it is recommended that you create the file at a lower bit rate. If the sound is still noisy, MP3 is the recommended audio format. Note, however, this system does not conform to WMA (Windows Media Audio) format.

• Because of the compression technology used for DivX video files, it may take some time after you press H for the picture to appear.

About MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files

What is MP3/JPEG?

MP3 is audio compression technology that satisfies the ISO/MPEG regulations. JPEG is image compression technology.

Discs that the system can play

You can play back DATA CDs (CD-ROMs/CD-Rs/ CD-RWs) or DATA DVDs (DVD-ROMs/DVD-Rs/ DVD-RWs/DVD+Rs/DVD+RWs) recorded in MP3 (MPEG1 Audio Layer 3) and JPEG format. However, the DATA CDs must be recorded according to ISO 9660 Level 1, Level 2 or Joliet format and DATA DVDs of Universal Disk Format for the system to recognize the tracks (or files). You can also play discs recorded in Multi Session*. See the instructions supplied with the CD-Rs/ CD-RWs or DVD-Rs/DVD-RWs/DVD+Rs/ DVD+RWs drives and the recording software (not supplied) for details on the recording format.

* About the multi-session disc: If MP3 audio tracks or JPEG

image files are recorded in the first session, the system will also play MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files in other sessions. If audio tracks and images in audio CD format or video CD format are recorded in the first session, only the first session will be played back.

Note

The system may not be able to play some DATA CDs/DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write format.

MP3 audio track or JPEG image file that the system can play

The system can play the MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files:

• which have the extension “.MP3” (MP3 audio track) or “.JPG”/“.JPEG” (JPEG image file)

• which conform to the DCF* image file format

* “Design rule for Camera File system”: Image standards for

digital cameras regu lated by Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA).

Notes

• The system will play any data with the extension “.MP3,” “.JPG,” or “.JPEG” even if they are not in MP3 or JPEG format. Playing this data may generate a loud noise which could damage your speaker system.

• The system does not conform to audio in MP3PRO format.

Playback order of MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files

The playback order of MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files recorded on a DATA CD/DATA DVD is as follows:

Structure of disc contents

Tree 1 Tree 2 Tree 3 Tree 4 Tree 5

ROOT

Track (MP3 audio) or

Album

File (JPEG image)

When you insert a DATA CD/DATA DVD and press H, the numbered tracks (or files) are played sequentially, from 1 through 7. Any sub-albums/ tracks (or files) contained within a currently selected album take priority over the next album in the same tree. (Example: C contains D so 4 is played before

5.)

When you press DVD MENU and the list of album names appears (page 62), the album names are arranged in alphabetical order (A t B t C t D t F t G). Albums that do not contain tracks (or files) (such as album E) do not appear in the list.

Tips

• If you add numbers (01, 02, 03, etc.) to the front of the track/file names when you store the tracks (or files) in a disc, the tracks and files will be played in that order.

• If a disc consists of many trees, it takes longer to start playback.

Notes

• Playback order may differ from the illustration depending on the software you use to create the DATA CD/DATA DVD, or if there are more than 200 albums and 300 files in each album.

• The system can recognize up to 200 albums, and will not play any albums beyond the 200th.

rideaux, pas plus qu’avec des journaux, etc.

• N’installez jamais la chaîne de la façon suivante :

La circulation de l’air est bloquée.

Mur Mur

La circulation de l’air est bloquée.

Orifices d’aération

• Ne jamais rien introduire dans les orifices d’aération, dans l’espace entre l’écran du téléviseur et la façade ou dans la fente pour disque. Si un objet métallique ou du liquide pénétrait dans ces derniers, cela pourrait provoquer un incendie ou une décharge électrique.

• Si un objet ou du liquide venait à pénétrer à l’intérieur du boîtier, débranchez l’appareil et faites-le vérifier par un personnel qualifié avant de le remettre en marche.

• N’obstruez pas les orifices de ventilation en posant quelque chose sur l’appareil. La chaîne est équipée d’un amplificateur haute puissance. Si les orifices de ventilation sont bouchés, l’appareil peut surchauffer et mal fonctionner.

Disposition

• N’obstruez pas la zone dans laquelle la façade se relève et s’abaisse. Cela pourrait provoquer un dysfonctionnement. Laissez un espace libre autour de la chaîne, faute de quoi la circulation d’air peut être inadéquate et entraîner une surchauffe susceptible de provoquer un incendie, ou encore d’endommager la chaîne ou la façade.

Verre cassé

Ne rien jeter sur la chaîne. Le verre de l’écran pourrait exploser lors de l’impact et provoquer des blessures graves.

Suite

Page 96

Au repos

Pour des raisons de sécurité et de protection de l’environnement, il est conseillé de ne pas laisser la chaîne en mode de veille lorsqu’elle n’est pas utilisée. Débranchez-la du secteur. Toutefois, certaines chaînes possèdent des fonctionnalités dont le bon fonctionnement exige que l’appareil demeure sous tension lorsqu’il est en mode de veille. Si cela s’applique à votre appareil, vous trouverez les instructions correspondantes dans le présent manuel.

Regarder la télévision

• Pour regarder confortablement la télévision, nous vous conseillons de vous trouver à une distance du téléviseur égale à quatre à sept fois la diagonale de l’écran.

• Regarder la télévision dans une pièce modérément éclairée ou peu éclairée soumet vos yeux à un effort. Par ailleurs, fixer l’écran pendant de longs moments entraîne aussi une fatigue pour les yeux.

Réglage du volume

• Maintenez le volume sonore à un niveau qui ne gêne pas les voisins. Le son se transmet très facilement pendant la nuit. Nous vous conseillons donc de fermer les fenêtres ou d’utiliser un casque.

• Si vous utilisez un casque, réglez le volume de façon à éviter un niveau sonore excessif qui pourrait altérer votre capacité auditive.

• N’augmentez pas le volume lorsque vous écoutez un passage avec de très faibles niveaux d’entrée ou sans signal audio. Vous risqueriez d’endommager les enceintes lorsqu’un passage caractérisé par un niveau sonore de crête est lu soudainement.

Surcharge

Cette chaîne est conçue pour fonctionner sur une alimentation de 220 – 240 V CA uniquement. Prenez soin de ne pas brancher un trop grand nombre d’appareils sur la même prise de courant, ce qui pourrait provoquer un incendie ou une décharge électrique.

Chaleur

Ne touchez pas la surface de la chaîne. Elle reste chaude un certain temps après la mise hors tension de la chaîne.

Corrosion

Si vous utilisez cette chaîne au bord de la mer, la salinité peut faire rouiller les parties métalliques et causer des dégâts internes ou provoquer un incendie. Elle peut aussi raccourcir la durée de vie de la chaîne. Si la chaîne doit être soumise à l’une de ces conditions, il convient de prendre des mesures qui réduiront l’humidité et la température du lieu dans lequel elle est placée.

Précautions

Sécurité

• L’appareil n’est pas déconnecté du secteur tant qu’il reste branché sur la prise secteur, même si l’appareil proprement dit a été mis hors tension. Pour déconnecter totalement la chaîne, débranchez la fiche de la prise secteur.

• Débranchez l’appareil de la prise murale si vous prévoyez de ne pas l’utiliser pendant une longue période.

Ecran LCD

• Bien que l’écran LCD soit le fruit d’une technologie de pointe et que 99,99 % ou plus des pixels sont efficaces, des points noirs ou des points lumineux (rouges, bleus ou verts) peuvent apparaître en permanence sur l’écran LCD. Ceci est une propriété structurelle du panneau LCD et ne constitue pas un problème de fonctionnement.

• Ne pas exposer la surface de l’écran LCD à la lumière directe du soleil. Cela pourrait endommager la surface de l’écran.

• Ne pas appuyer sur le filtre avant, ne pas l’égratigner et ne pas placer d’objets sur cette chaîne. L’image pourrait être instable ou le panneau LCD être endommagé.

• Si cette chaîne est utilisée dans un environnement froid, l’image peut apparaître sale ou sombre. Ce n’est pas le signe d’une défaillance. Ce phénomène disparaît au fur et à mesure que la température augmente.

• Une image rémanente peut apparaître lorsque des images fixes sont affichées en continu. Elle peut disparaître au bout d’un certain temps.

• L’écran et le boîtier se réchauffent lorsque la chaîne est en cours d’utilisation. Ceci n’a rien d’anormal.

• L’écran LCD contient une petite quantité de cristaux liquides et de mercure. Le tube fluorescent utilisé dans cette chaîne contient également du mercure. Respectez les réglementations locales en vigueur concernant l’élimination de cet équipement.

Lampe fluorescente

Cette chaîne utilise une lampe fluorescente spéciale comme source lumineuse. Si l’image à l’écran devient sombre, tremblote ou ne s’affiche pas, la lampe fluorescente est usée et l’écran LCD doit être remplacé. Pour cela, consultez un technicien qualifié.

Installation de la chaîne

• N’installez pas la chaîne dans des lieux sujets à des températures extrêmes, par exemple en plein soleil, près d’un radiateur, d’une bouche d’air chaud, ne l’exposez pas non plus à une poussière excessive, à des vibrations mécaniques ou des chocs. Si la chaîne est exposée à de fortes températures, elle peut chauffer excessivement et ceci peut entraîner la déformation des pièces moulées ou un mauvais fonctionnement.

• Pour obtenir une image nette, n’exposez pas directement l’appareil à une lumière intense ou aux rayons directs du soleil. Si possible, utilisez une source de lumière dirigée du plafond vers le sol.

• N’installez pas les appareils optionnels trop près de la chaîne. Laissez un intervalle de 30 cm au moins. Si un magnétoscope est installé devant ou à côté de la chaîne, l’image risque d’être déformée.

Page 97

• Une déformation de l’image et/ou un son bruyant peuvent se produire si la chaîne est placée à proximité immédiate d’un appareil émettant des rayonnements électromagnétiques.

• Prévoyez une circulation d’air suffisante de manière à éviter toute surchauffe interne.

• Ne placez pas l’appareil sur une surface moelleuse (comme un tapis, une couverture, etc.) ou près de tissus (comme un rideau ou une tenture) risquant de bloquer les fentes d’aération.

• N’installez pas l’appareil en position inclinée. L’appareil est conçu pour fonctionner uniquement à l’horizontale.

• Gardez l’appareil et les disques à l’écart de tout équipement contenant des aimants puissants, par exemple des fours à micro-ondes ou de puissants haut-parleurs.

• Si vous transportez l’appareil directement d’une pièce froide dans une pièce chaude, de l’humidité peut apparaître par condensation à l’intérieur de la chaîne et endommager l’optique. Lorsque vous installez l’appareil pour la première fois, ou lorsque vous le déplacez d’un endroit froid à un endroit chaud, attendez environ 30 minutes avant de le faire fonctionner.

Traitement et nettoyage du boîtier et de la surface de l’écran de la chaîne

La surface de l’écran est recouverte d’un enduit spécial destiné à prévenir l’éblouissement par des reflets lumineux. Pour éviter toute dégradation du matériau ou du revêtement de l’écran, respectez les précautions suivantes.

• N’exercez pas de pression et ne rayez pas l’écran avec des objets durs. Ne jetez jamais rien sur l’écran. Cela pourrait l’endommager.

• Ne touchez pas la surface de l’écran alors que la chaîne a fonctionné de manière continue pendant une période prolongée, car l’écran est alors chaud.

• Nous vous conseillons d’éviter le plus possible de toucher la surface de l’écran.

• Pour ôter la poussière du boîtier ou de la surface de l’écran, frottez délicatement avec un linge doux. En cas de saleté tenace, frottez avec un linge doux légèrement imprégné d’une solution à base de détergent doux dilué. Vous pouvez laver et réutiliser le linge doux.

• N’utilisez jamais aucune éponge abrasive, produit de nettoyage alcalin/acide, poudre à récurer ou solvant volatil, qu’il s’agisse d’alcool, d’essence, de diluant ou d’insecticide. L’utilisation de ces produits ou tout contact prolongé avec des matériaux en caoutchouc ou en vinyle peut endommager la surface de l’écran et le matériau du boîtier. Pour toute question ou tout problème concernant votre chaîne, n’hésitez pas à consulter votre revendeur Sony le plus proche.

• Avec le temps, la poussière peut s’accumuler sur les ouvertures d’aération. Pour une ventilation correcte, nous vous conseillons d’aspirer régulièrement la poussière (une fois par mois).

Installation

En cas de volume élevé sur de longues périodes, le boîtier devient chaud au toucher. Il ne s’agit pas d’un dysfonctionnement. Cependant, il est conseillé de ne pas le toucher.

A propos du nettoyage des disques et des produits de nettoyage des disques/lentilles

N’utilisez pas de disque de nettoyage ou de produit de nettoyage des disques/lentilles (liquide ou aérosol) disponible dans le commerce. Ils risquent d’altérer le bon fonctionnement de l’appareil.

Remarques sur les disques

Manipulation des disques

• Pour que les disques restent propres, tenez-les par la partie périphérique. Ne touchez jamais la surface.

• Ne collez ni papier, ni ruban adhésif sur le disque.

• N’exposez pas les disques au rayonnement direct du soleil ou à des sources de chaleur, telles que des conduits de chauffage et ne les laissez pas dans une voiture garée en plein soleil étant donné que la température à l’intérieur de l’habitacle risque d’augmenter considérablement.

• Après avoir lu un disque, rangez-le dans son boîtier.

Entretien

• Avant de lire un disque, nettoyez-le à l’aide d’un chiffon de nettoyage. Essuyez les disques en allant du centre vers l’extérieur.

• N’utilisez pas de solvants, tels que la benzine, les diluants, les nettoyants disponibles dans le commerce ou les sprays antistatiques destinés aux disques en vinyle.

Cet appareil peut uniquement lire les disques de forme circulaire standard. L’utilisation d’un autre type de disque (par exemple en forme de carte, de cœur ou d’étoile) peut entraîner un dysfonctionnement.

N’utilisez pas de disque accompagné d’un accessoire disponible dans le commerce, comme une étiquette ou un anneau.
