Cleaning discs
To clean a disc, use a micro fibre cleaning
cloth and wipe the disc from the center
to the edge in a straight line.
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or anti-static sprays intended for discs.
Since the optical unit (laser) of the DVD
system operates at a higher power than
regular DVD or CD players, cleaning CDs
intended for DVD or CD players may
damage the optical unit (laser). Therefore,
refrain from using a cleaning CD.
General Information
Setup
Finding a suitable location
– Place the set on a flat, hard and stable
surface. Do not place the set on a carpet.

(e.g., CDs, magazines).
– Install this system near the AC outlet
and where the AC power plug can be
reached easily.
Space for ventilation
