CAUTION
< Do not play any disc that is warped, deformed or damaged. Playing
such discs may cause irreparable harm to the playing mechanisms.
< Printable discs are not recommended, as the label side might be
sticky and damage the unit.
< Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do not
use any protective coating spray.
< 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 discs (octagonal, heart shaped, business
card size, etc.). Discs of this sort can damage the unit:
Handling precautions
< Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side up.
Compact discs can be played or recorded only on one side.
< To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of
the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.

Storage precautions
< Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid dust and
scratches that could cause the laser pickup to “skip.”
< Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and
temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures will warp the disc.
< CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of heat
and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important that they are
not stored in a location where direct sunlight will fall on them, and
away from sources of heat such as radiators or heat-generating
electrical devices.
Maintenance
< Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface radially (from the
center hole outward towards the outer edge) with a soft, dry cloth.
< Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or
fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do
irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic surface.
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a disc, read the
precautions supplied with the disc, or contact the disc manufacturer.
