7. Care
Occasionally, you should dust this unit all over

cloth dampened with a weak solution of mild deter-
gent and water. Dry the unit immediately after-
wards with a clean cloth. Do not use abrasive
cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other chemical sol-
vents, because they may damage the finish or
remove the panel lettering.

9. To Obtain a Clear Picture
This unit is a high-tech, precision device. If the lens
on the optical pickup, or the disc drive mechanism
becomes dirty or worn, the picture quality may be
affected. To maintain the best picture quality, we
recommend regular inspection and maintenance
(cleaning or worn part replacement) every 1,000
hours of use depending on the operating environ-
ment. Contact your Onkyo dealer for details.
10. Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation may damage this unit.
Read the following carefully:
When you take a glass containing a cold drink out-
side on a summer’s day, drops of water, called con-
densation, form on the outside of the glass.
Similarly, moisture may condense on the lens of
the optical pickup, one of the most important parts
inside this unit.
Moisture condensation can occur in the follow-
ing situations:
The unit is moved from a cold place to a
warm place.
—A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air
conditioner is hitting the unit.
In the summer, when this unit is moved from
an air conditioned room to a hot and humid
place.
The unit is used in a humid place.
Do not use this unit when there’s the possibility
of moisture condensation occurring. Doing so
may damage your discs and certain parts inside
this unit.
If condensation does occur, remove all discs and
leave this unit turned on for two to three hours.
By this time, the unit will have warmed up and
any condensation will have evaporated. To
reduce the risk of condensation, keep this unit
connected to a wall outlet.
