Handle your CDs carefully, and they will last a long time.
Compact Discs
CAUTION:
• Do not use any solvent (for example, con-
ventional record cleaner, spray thinner,
benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping
your CDs and the mechanism clean.
• Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on
shelves.
• Keep the System’s Top Cover closed when not in use.
Cleaning the Lens
If the lens in the CD pickup is dirty, dropout, etc., could de-
grade sound.
Open the Top Cover and clean the lens as shown.
• Use a blower (available from a camera store) to blow
dust off the lens.
• If there are fingerprints, etc. on the lens, gently wipe
clean with a cotton swab.
Moisture Condensation
• Only CDs bearing this mark can
be used with this System. How-
ever, continued use of irregular
shape CDs (heart-shape, octago-
nal, etc.) can damage the System.
• Remove the CD from its case by
holding it at the edges while
pressing the case’s center hole
lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of
the CD, or bend the CD.
• Put the CD back in its case after
use to prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the sur-
face of the CD when placing it
back in the case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight,
temperature extremes, and mois-
ture.
• A dirty CD may not play cor-
rectly. If a CD does become dirty,
wipe it with a soft cloth in a
straight line from center to edge.
Moisture may condense on the lens
inside the System in the following
cases:
• After turning on heating in the
room.
• In a damp room.
• If the System is brought directly
from a cold to a warm place.
Should this occur, the System may
malfunction. In this case, leave the
System turned on for a few hours un-
til the moisture evaporates, unplug
the AC power cord, and then plug it
in again.
