CD player and CD handling
If the CD player cannot read CDs correctly, use a
commonly available cleaning CD to clean the lens before
taking the set to repair. Other cleaning methods may
destroy the lens.
The lens of the CD player should never be touched!
Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can
cause condensation to cloud over on the lens of your CD
player. Playing a CD is then not possible. Do not attempt
to clean the lens but leave the set in a warm
environment until the moisture evaporates.
Always keep the CD compartment closed to avoid dust
on the lens.
To take a CD out of its box, press the centre spindle
while lifting the CD. Always pick up the CD by the edge
and return the CD to its box after use to avoid
scratching and dust.
To clean the CD, wipe in a straight line from the centre
towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use
cleaning agents as they may damage the disc.
Never write on a CD or attach any stickers to it.
