Within approximately
6 m (19.7 feet)
Battery replacement
If you find that the remote control transmitter must be used
closer to the main unit, the batteries are weak. Replace both
batteries with new ones.
Notes
●
Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement.
Be sure polarities are correct. (See illustration inside battery

compartment.)
There should be no large obstacles between the remote
control transmitter and the main unit.
If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong
lighting (especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.),
it might cause the remote control transmitter to not work
correctly. In this case, reposition the main unit to avoid
direct lighting.
●
Remove batteries if 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.

HANDLING COMPACT DISCS
To remove a disc from its storage case, open the case and
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.
•
•
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.
Always handle the disc with care so that its surface is not
scratched.
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.
•
•
•
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.
Discs are not subjected to wear during play, but disc surface
damage when the disc is being handled can adversely affect
the disc’s play.
•
No!
To play a 8-cm (3-inch) CD
Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put
a normal (12-cm/5-inch) CD on top of a 8-cm CD.
