In this case, reposition the main unit to avoid   direct lighting.   ● Remove the batteries if the remote control transmitter will   not be used for an extended period of time.   If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid   touching the leaked material or letting it come in contact with   clothing, etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly   before installing new batteries.   ● ● NOTES ABOUT HANDLING COMPACT DISCS   ● ● This compact-disc player is designed only for playing of   compact discs bearing the mark. Never attempt to   load any other type of disc into the unit.   Compact discs are not affected by small particles of dust or   fingerprints on their playing surface, but even so they should   be kept clean. Wipe by using a clean, dry cloth. Do not   wipe with a circular motion; wipe straight outward from the   center.   The unit will also play 3-inch (8-cm) compact discs.   ● To remove a disc from its storage case, open the case and   then press down at the center; with a finger through the   center hole and the outer edges held as shown in the   illustration, lift the disc out carefully.   ● ● Do not try to clean the disc's surface by using any type of   disc cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or liquid, or any   other chemical-based liquid, because such substances   might irreparably damage the disc's surface.   ● Always handle the disc with care so that its surface is not   scratched.   Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature or   high humidity for a long period of time, because these might   warp or otherwise damage the disc.   NO!   ● Compact discs are not subjected to wear during play, but   damage to the disc surface when the disc is being handled   can adversely affect the disc’s play.   To play a 3-inch (8-cm) CD   Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put   a normal (5-inch/12-cm) CD on top of a 3-inch CD.   22   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.
