Notes on Discs
On handling discs
• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do
not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
If there is glue (or a similar substance) on the disc,
remove the glue completely before using the disc.
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources
such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct
sunlight as there can be considerable rise in temperature
inside the car.
• After playing, store the disc in its case.
• Do not use discs fitted with a protection ring. This may
cause the system to malfunction.
On cleaning
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center out.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray
intended for vinyl LPs.

with EXCHANGE
mechanism
You can change other discs while playing a disc
(EXCHANGE mechanism).
Disc changer system
The disc changer consists of a playing unit, trays
which hold the discs, and a stocker which transports
the discs on their trays to the disc slot and the
playing unit.
For example, if you press DISC 3, the stocker moves
until the DISC 3 tray comes to the position of the
playing unit and then moves the DISC 3 tray over the
playing unit. If you press A of DISC 4 while playing
DISC 3, the stocker leaves the DISC 3 tray over the
playing unit, moves so that the DISC 4 tray comes to
the position of the disc cover, opens the disc cover
and pushes out the DISC 4 tray (EXCHANGE
mechanism).
Note
Noise may come from the disc changer when changing
discs or turning the system on and off. However, this is just
noise produced by the operation of the internal
mechanisms and does not indicate a malfunction.
