General Information/Maintenance  
The ventilation should not be impeded by  
Environmental information  
covering the ventilation openings with items, such  
as newspapers table-cloths, curtains, etc.  
Any unnecessary packaging has been omitted.  
We have tried to make the packaging easy to  
separate into three materials: cardboard (box),  
polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene (bags,  
protective foam sheet).  
Cleaning the cabinet  
Use soft cloth slightly moistened  
with a mild detergent solution.  
Do not use a solution containing  
alcohol, spirits, ammonia or  
abrasives.  
Your system consists of materials which can be  
recycled and reused if disassembled by a  
specialised company. Please observe the local  
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging  
materials, exhausted batteries and old  
equipment.  
Cleaning discs  
To clean a CD, wipe it in a straight line from the  
center towards the edge using soft and lint-free  
cloth.A cleaning agent may damage the disc.  
Write only on the printed side of a CDR(W)  
and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.  
Handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the  
surface.  
Care and safety information  
Avoid high temperatures, moisture,  
water and dust  
Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to  
humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by  
heating equipment or direct sunlight).Always  
keep disc trays closed to avoid dust buildup on  
the lens.  
Cleaning the disc lens  
After prolonged use, dirt or dust may accumulate  
at the disc lens.To ensure good playback quality,  
clean the disc lens with Philips CD Lens Cleaner  
or any commercially available cleaner. Follow the  
instructions supplied with cleaner.  
No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall  
be placed on the apparatus.  
Finding a suitable location  
Place the player on a flat, hard, stable surface.  
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,  
should be placed on the apparatus.  
Cleaning the head and the tape paths  
To ensure good recording and playback quality,  
clean the head A, the capstan(s) B, and  
pressure roller(s) C after every 50 hours of tape  
operation.  
Use a cotton swab slightly moistened with  
cleaning fluid or alcohol.  
You also can clean the head by playing a cleaning  
tape once.  
Avoid condensation problem  
The lens may cloud over when the player is  
suddenly moved from cold to warm  
surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc.  
Leave the player in the warm environment until  
the moisture evaporates.  
Do not block the vents  
Do not operate the system in an enclosed  
cabinet and allow about 10 cm (4 inches) of free  
space all around the player for adequate  
ventilation.
