keep your discs away from sources of heat such as radiators
or heat-generating electrical devices.
< Printable discs aren’t recommended because the label side
might be sticky (or contain glue), which will damage the unit.
< Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do
not use any protective coating spray.
< Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write information on
the label side of a disc. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped
pen, as this may cause damage to the recorded side of the
disc.
< Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD
stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms and
cause them to malfunction.
< Do not use irregular shape CDs (octagonal, heart shaped,
business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit:
< If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of any
disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or contact
the disc manufacturer directly.
< Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface from the
center hole outward towards the outer edge with a soft, dry,
lint-free cloth:
< Never use chemicals such as record (LP) sprays, antistatic
sprays or fluids, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such
chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic
surface.
< Discs should be returned to their cases after each use to avoid
dust and scratches that may eventually cause your disc to
skip.
< Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high
temperatures for extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures will warp the disc.
< Do not play any disc that is warped, scratched, deformed or
damaged. Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to
the playback mechanism.
