CAUTIONS ON HANDLING DISCS
Discs
Only the discs including the marks shown on page 6 can be played on
the ADV-M51.
Note, however, that discs with special shapes (heart-shaped discs,
hexagonal discs, etc.) cannot be played on the ADV-M51. Do not
attempt to play such discs, as they may damage the player.
Cautions on Handling Discs
• Do not get fingerprints, grease or dirt on discs.
• Be especially careful not to scratch discs when removing them
from their cases.
• Do not bend discs.
• Do not heat discs.
• Do not enlarge the center hole.
• Do not write on the labeled (printed) side with a ball-point pen or a
pencil.
• Water droplets may form on the surface if the disc is moved
suddenly from a cold place to a warm one. Do not use a hairdryer,
etc., to dry the disc.
Cautions on Storing Discs
• Always eject discs after playing them.
• Keep discs in their cases to protect them from dust, scratches and
warping.
• Do not put discs in the following places:
1. Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time
2. Humid or dusty places
3. Places exposed to heat from heaters, etc.
Cautions on Loading Discs
• Only load one disc at a time. Loading one disc on top of another
may result in damage or scratch the discs.
• Load 8 cm discs securely in the disc guide, without using an
adapter. If the disc is not properly loaded, it may slip out of the
guide and block the disc tray.
• Be careful not to let your fingers get caught when the disc tray is
closing.
• Do not place anything but discs in the disc tray.
• Do not load cracked or warped discs or discs that have been fixed
with adhesive, etc.
• Do not use discs on which the adhesive part of cellophane tape or
glue used to attach the label is exposed, or discs with traces of tape
or labels that have been peeled off. Such discs may get stuck inside
the player, resulting in damage.
Holding Discs
Avoid touching the surface of discs when loading and unloading them.
Cleaning Discs

Fingerprints or dirt on the disc may lower sound and picture quality
or cause breaks in playback. Wipe off fingerprints or dirt.

Use a commercially available disc cleaning set or a soft cloth to
wipe off fingerprints or dirt.
