Cautions on Handling and Storing Discs

Small scratches on the disc may reduce sound and picture quality or cause breaks in playback. Be especially careful not to scratch discs when handling them.

Handling discs

Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface.

Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Handling and Storing Discs

When you get fingerprints or dirt on the disc, clean it with a mild detergent diluted in water and wipe with a soft cloth.

• When cleaning, wipe gently from the inside to the outside of the disc.

Note

• Condensation may form if warm air comes into contact with cold parts inside the player. When condensation forms inside the player, the player may not operate correctly. If this occurs, remove the disc and let the player stand for 1 or 2 hours with the power on.

Precautions When Using Audio Cassettes

• Check that the tape in the cassette is sufficiently taut.

• To prevent erasing a cassette that you wish to keep, remove the safety tab on the upper edge of the cassette. To record a cassette, where the tab has been broken, simply cover the opening with adhesive tape.

• When you have finished playing a cassette, always put it back in its case.

• Store your cassettes in a clean place, out of direct sunlight, where they will not be exposed to high temperatures.

• Avoid using 120-minute cassettes as they place unnecessary strain on the tape mechanism.
