NOTES ABOUT DISCS

Discs playable with this unit

This compact disc player is designed only for playing compact discs bearing the marks shown below. Never attempt to load any other type of disc into the unit. The unit will also play 8-cm (3-inch) compact discs.

.... Compact discs (digital audio)

The most popular discs for commercially available audio CDs.

.... CD-RW (ReWritable) digital audio

discs

The discs repeatedly recordable by using CD recorders for audio recording. Recorded CD-RW discs can be played only with CD players which have the ability to play CD-RW discs.

Notes

cBe sure to use a CD-RW disc made by a reliable manufacture.

cBe sure to use a CD-RW disc which has at least one of the following phrases on the disc or disc case.

FOR CONSUMER FOR CONSUMER USE

FOR MUSIC USE ONLY

.... CD-TEXT discs

The discs recorded with text data such as album titles, track titles and artist names. These discs can be played with ordinary

CD players, however, the text data can be displayed only with CD players which have the ability to display such data.

CDX-596 can display text data

recorded on CD-TEXT discs.

Note

This compact disc player may not be able to play some CD-RW discs or discs on which recording was not made correctly.

To prevent a malfunction of this unit:

cDo not use any nonstandard shaped disc (heart etc.) available on the

market because it might damage the unit.

cDo not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste on it. If you use such a disc, a disc may get stuck in the unit, or damage to the unit may result.

E-2

Notes about handling compact discs

cAlways handle the disc with care so that its surface is not scratched.

cCompact discs are not subjected to wear during play, but damage to the disc surface when the disc is being handled can adversely affect the disc’s play.

cBe sure to use a felt-tip pen or similar writing tool when writing on the label side of the disc. Do not use a ballpoint pen, pencil, or other hard-tipped writing tool, as these may damage the disc and may adversely affect the disc’s play.

cDo not warp discs.

cWhen a disc is not currently being used, remove it from the unit and store in an appropriate case.

cWhen removing or storing a disc, be careful not to scratch the playing surface.

cCompact discs are not affected by small particles of dust or fingerprints on their playing surface, but even so they

should be kept clean. Wipe by using a clean, dry cloth. Do not wipe with a circular motion; wipe straight outward from the center.

cDo not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any type of disc cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or liquid, or any other chemical-based liquid because such substances might irreparably damage the disc’s surface.

cDo not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature or high humidity for a long period of time because these might warp or otherwise damage the disc.

No!

To play an 8-cm (3-inch) CD

Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put a normal (12-cm/5-inch) CD on top of an 8-cm CD.
