Moisture condensation

On a rainy day or in a very damp area,

drinks onto the unit or discs.

Notes on discs

•To keep the disc clean, do not touch the

•Keep your discs in their cases or disc

magazines when not in use. Do not subject

the discs to heat/high temperature. Avoid

leaving them in parked cars or on

dashboards/rear trays.

•Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky

ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning

when used, causing a malfunction, or may

ruin the disc.

•Discs with special shapes (heart-shaped

discs, octagonal discs, etc.) cannot be played

on this unit. Attempting to do so may

damage the unit. Do not use such discs.

• You cannot play 8 cm CDs.

•Before playing, clean the discs with a

commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe

each disc from the centre out. Do not use

solvents such as benzine, thinner,

commercially available cleaners, or antistatic
