Handling CDs
EN
• Do not touch the signal surfaces. Hold CDs by the
edges, or by one edge and the hole. Do not affix
labels or adhesive tapes to the label surfaces. Do
not scratch or damage the label. CDs rotate at
high speeds inside the player. Do not use damaged
(cracked or warped) CDs
Cleaning

CAUTION! This system operates with a laser. It
Cleaning CDs
must be opened by only a qualified technician.
• Dirty CDs can cause poor sound quality. Always
keep CDs clean by wiping them gently with a soft
cloth from the inner edge toward the outer
perimeter.
Tape Player
• If a CD becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in water,
wring it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and
then remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic
agents on CDs. Also, never clean CDs with
benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents which
may cause damage to disc surface.
To prevent deterioration of sound quality,
periodically open the door of each deck and clean
the magnetic heads, pinch roller, and capstan with
a cotton bud dipped in alcohol. Also, demagnetize
the head by playing a demagnetizing cassette
(available through an audio equipment store).
To protect recordings on one or both sides of a
tape, remove the corresponding tab. If you later
want to record on the tape, affix a piece of
adhesive tape over the hole.
CD Lens Care
When your CD lens gets dirty it can also cause the
system to output poor sound quality. To clean the
lens you will need to purchase a CD lens cleaner
which can maintain the output sound quality of
your system. For instructions
on cleaning the CD lens, refer to the ones
accompanying the lens cleaner.
