The CD-DJ1 has been designed for the playback of
CD-DA (standard audio) format discs and MP3 files
recorded on the discs using the ISO9660 format: In
addition to ordinary 12cm (5-inch) and 8cm (3-inch)
CDs, it can also play properly recorded CD-Rs and
CD-RWs.
Always place the compact discs in the trays with
their label facing upward.
To remove a disc from its case, press down on the
center of the disc holder, then lift the disc out,
holding it carefully by the edges.
Avoid getting fingerprints on the signal side (the
non- label side). Grime and dust may cause skip-
ping, so keep discs clean and store them in their
cases when not being played. To clean the signal
side of a disc, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth
from the center towards the outside edge.
Do not use any record spray, anti-static solutions,
benzene, paint thinner or other chemical agents to
clean CDs as they could damage the delicate playing
surface. It may cause CDs to become unplayable.
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to
avoid serious scratches that could cause the laser
pickup to “skip.”

Keep discs away from direct sunlight, and places
of high heat and humidity. If left in such places,
warping could result.
Do not affix any labels or stickers to the label side
of the disc. Do not write on the disc with a ball-
point pen.
Do not insert discs that have adhesive remaining
from tape or stickers that have been removed. If
they are inserted into the player, they could stick
to the internal mechanism, requiring removal by a
technician.
Do not use cracked discs.
Only use circular compact discs. Avoid using non-
circular promotional, etc. discs.
The CD-DJ1 cannot play unfinalized CD-R/RWs.
The unit may not be able to play some CD-Rs and
CD-RWs due to disc quality or recording conditions.
Music discs with copy control, a copy-protection
system, have been released form several record
companies in an attempt to protect the copyright.
Since some of these discs do not comply with the
CD specifications, they may not be playable on
the CD-DJ1.
