9 CARE AND MAINTENANCE

If it gets wet, wipe dry immediately. Liquids
may contain minerals that can corrode the
electronic circuits.

temperature environments. Temperature
extremes can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt
plastic parts.
• Keep the player away from dust and dirt,
which can cause premature wear of parts.
• Handle the player gently and carefully.

cause malfunctioning.
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size
and recommended type. Old batteries can
leak chemicals that damage the player’s
electronic parts.
• Wipe the player with a damp cloth occasionally
to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh
chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents only mild soap and water.

Even though CD/MP3 discs are very durable,
follow the suggestions below for optimal
performance:
• Keep discs inside the player or in their
protective case or sleeve when not in playing
• Handle discs by their edges to avoid
fingerprints that can cause skipping or
distorted sound
• Do not write on the non-label side
• Keep discs dry as moisture drop can act as
a lens and cause skipping or distorted sound
• Never use chemicals such as record cleaning
sprays, ant-static sprays or fluids, benzene
or thinner to clean as they can permanently
damage the plastic surface
