CARE AND MAINTENANCE
18
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.
