Handling Compact discs

Playing a CD that is dirty, scratched

or warped can cause the sound to

skip and the unit to operate

incorrectly, resulting in worsened

sound quality. Take the following

precautions to prevent your CDs from

getting scratched or damaged.

Cleaning CDs

Do Not Load CD Accessories in Slot

If a CD has become dirty, wipe it off gently

using a commercially available cleaning cloth

or a soft cotton cloth, starting from the

centre of the disc and moving outward. Do

not clean CDs with conventional record

cleaners, anti- static formulas, or chemicals

such as paint thinner or benzene.

Do not use commercially available CD

accessories that can be loaded into the CD

slot, such as stabilisers, protective sheets, or

CD cleaning discs, since they can cause the

unit to malfunction.

Removing the CD

Only remove the CD from the machine in a

horizontal direction. You may damage the

surface of the CD if you try pulling it down as

it ejects.

Handling CDs

• Do not touch the recorded side of the CD

(i.e., the side opposite the label) when

holding it.

Checking New CDs for Burrs

When playing a new CD for the first time,

check that there are not any burrs stuck to

the perimeter of the disc or in the central

hole. CDs with burrs stuck on them may not

load properly or may skip whilst playing.

Remove burrs using a ballpoint pen or a

similar utensil.

Do Not Use Special Shape CDs

• Be sure to use round shape CDs only for this

unit and do not use any special shape CDs.

Use of special shape CDs may cause the

unit to malfunction.

• Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.

Burrs

Storing CDs

COMPACT

• Do not store CDs in areas exposed to direct

sunlight – such as a car seat or above the

fascia panel (dashboard) – or other hot

places.

• Remove CDs from the unit when not

listening to them for a whilst, and put them

back in their cases. Do not stack CDs that

have been removed from their cases or prop

them against something.
