PLAYING A CD-R OR CD-RW

ERASE PROTECTION
When you record new material, the cassette deck records
over whatever is on the tape. To protect a tape from accidental
erasure, break off one or both plastic tabs (one for each
tape side) of the cassette tape. If you decide later to record
on the tape, seal the hole with a piece of cellophane tape.

NOTE
Use of tapes longer than 120 minutes is not recommended, since characteristic deterioration may occur and
these tapes easily jam in the pinch roller and the capstan.

User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs (Rewritable) can be played only if they are already “finalized.”
• You can play your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded in music CD format. (However, they may not be played
depending on their characteristics or recording conditions.)
• Before playing CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions and cautions carefully.
• Some CD-Rs and CD-RWs may not be played on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or
stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. (This is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is
lower than that of regular CDs.)

Caution for DualDisc playback
The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore,
the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Disconnect the unit from AC power before cleaning the exterior of the unit with a soft dust cloth.

HANDLING CDS
• Do not touch the signal surfaces. Hold by the edges, or by one edge and the hole.
• Do not affix labels or adhesive tape to the label surfaces. Also, do not scratch or damage the label.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.

CAUTION

Iron oxide particles from the magnetic tape build up on the parts that come in contact with the tape. These
deposits can cause incomplete erasure, muffled playback sound, and might prevent automatic stop.
To clean the cassette deck, open the cassette compartment door, push the PLAY button and gently clean the
heads, capstan, and pinch roller with a head cleaner.
Always unplug the AC power cord before cleaning, and allow 30 minutes drying time after using a liquid cleaner.
Clean the heads after every 25 hours of use.
• Never use any metal objects on or near the tape heads.
• Do not allow any cleaning material to fall into the tape assembly.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

The AM antenna is built in, so adjusting the position of the unit may help AM reception. The FM telescopic
antenna on the back of the unit can be extended and rotated for better FM reception.
