Do not play a CD with a special shape
Do not play a CD having other shape than a circular disc, such as
heart shaped disc. Otherwise malfunction may occur.
FORCED DISC EJECTION
If the EJECT button fails to work and it becomes impossible
to eject a disc, the disc may be ejected by inserting the disc
ejection pin in the manual disc ejection hole located on the
front panel of the player.
Always be sure to observe the following points when
manually ejecting discs.
1 Be sure to turn off the power to the CD player and wait
for 1 minute or more before ejecting the disc.
Manually ejecting a disc immediately after the
power to the unit has been turned off may
result in one of the following problems from
occurring, and care should accordingly be
taken never to eject discs immediately after the
power has been turned off.
÷ The disc will still be spinning when it is ejected, thus
resulting in cuts to the fingers or other forms of bodily
injury.
÷ The disc clamps will spin in an unstable state, thus
resulting in scratching of discs.
2 Be sure to use only the disc ejection pin included with
your CMX-3000 (i.e., never use a paper clip or any other
object).
Inserting the disc ejection pin into the hole until it
encounters resistance will cause the disc to be ejected
some 5 to 10 millimeters from the insertion slot. The
disc may then be removed by grasping it by hand and
pulling.

÷ If a disc becomes very dirty, dampen a soft cloth with water,
(be sure to wring it out well) and wipe the away dirt gently.
Remove any water drops with another soft, dry cloth.
÷ Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on
discs. Never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other
volatile solvents or damage to the disc surface may result.
÷ With this player, use only those
discs which display the mark
shown right (Optical audio digital
discs).
÷ When holding discs, do not touch their signal surfaces. Hold
by the edges, or by one edge and the center hole.
÷ Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the disc surface. Also,
do not scratch or damage the label.
÷ Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Do not use
damaged, cracked or warped discs.
Cleaning and handling compact discs
÷ The presence of fingerprints or smudges on the surface of
the disc will not directly affect the recorded signals, but,
depending on the degree of contamination, the brightness of
the light reflected from the signal surfaces may be reduced
causing degradation of sound quality. Always keep your discs
clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner
edge toward the outer edge.
