CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Caring for Compact Discs
• Treat the compact disc carefully. Handle the
compact disc only by its edges. Never allow your
fingers to come in contact with the shiny,
unprinted side of the compact disc.
• Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers, etc. to
the compact disc label.
• Clean the compact disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never
use detergents or abrasive cleaners to clean the compact disc. If
necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.
• If a disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the compact disc, it is probably
dirty or damaged (scratched).
• When cleaning the compact disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of
the compact disc to the outer edge of the compact disc. Never wipe in
circular motions.

•

•

This unit is designed to play only compact discs bearing the
identification logo as shown here. Other discs may not
conform to the CD standard and may not play properly.
Compact Discs should be stored in their cases after each
use to avoid damage.
Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, high
temperatures or dust, etc. Prolonged exposure or extreme temperatures
can warp the compact disc.
Do not stick or write anything on either side of the compact disc. Sharp
writing instruments, or the ink, may damage the surface.
