Care and maintenance
Cleaning external surfaces
Before cleaning turn off and disconnect the unit
from the power outlet. To clean, wipe with a soft,
dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, wet a soft cloth with
a mild detergent solution made by diluting one
part detergent to 5 or 6 parts water, wring well,
then wipe off the dirt. Use a dry cloth to wipe
the surface dry. Do not use volatile liquids such
as benzene or thinners which may damage the
surfaces.
Moving the unit
If you need to move the unit, first switch it off and
unplug from the wall outlet. Never lift or move
the unit during playback or recording—the disc
rotates at a high speed and may be damaged.
Storing optical cable
When storing optical cable, coil
loosly as shown at right. The
cable may be damaged if bent
around sharp corners.
Putting the batteries in the remote control
• Turn over the remote control, then press and slide the battery compartment cover off.
• Put in the batteries supplied, taking care to match the plus and minus ends of each battery with the
markings inside the compartment.
• Slide the cover back on, and your remote is ready for use.
Caution!
Incorrect use of batteries can result in hazards such as leakage and bursting. Please observe the following:
• Don’t mix new and old batteries together
• Don’t use different kinds of battery together—although they may look similar, different batteries may
have different voltages.
• Make sure that the plus and minus ends of each battery match the indications in the battery
compartment.
• Remove batteries from equipment that isn’t going to be used for a month or more.
• When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations or environmental
public institution’s rules that apply in your country or area.
Wipe lightly from the
center of the disc
using straight
strokes. Don’t wipe the disc
surface using
circular strokes.
Avoiding condensation problems
Condensation may form inside the player if it is
brought into a warm room from a cold
environment, or if the temperature of the room
rises quickly. Although the condensation won’t
damage the player, it may temporarily impair its
performance. For this reason you should leave it
to adjust to the warmer temperature for about
an hour before switching on and using.
Handling discs
When holding CDs of any type, take care not to
leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the disc
surface. Hold the disc by its edge or by the
center hole and edge. Damaged or dirty discs
can affect playback and/or recording perfor-
mance. Take care also not to scratch the label
side of the disc. Although not as fragile as the
recording side, scratches can still result in a
disc becoming unusable.
Should a disc become marked with fingerprints,
dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping
the disc lightly from the center to the outside
edge. If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol,
or a commercially available CD cleaning kit to
clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use
benzene, thinners or other cleaning agents,
including products designed for cleaning vinyl
records.
