If trouble occurs  
Before transporting the unit  
Remove all CDs from the unit. Make sure there is no CD in the disc  
tray. Then, set the unit to the power stand-by mode. Carrying the unit  
with discs left inside can damage the unit.  
When this product is subjected to strong external interference (me-  
chanical shock, excessive static electricity, abnormal supply voltage  
due to lightning, etc.) or if it is operated incorrectly, it may malfunc-  
tion.  
If such a problem occurs, do the following:  
Care of compact discs  
1
2
Set the unit to the stand-by mode and turn the power on again.  
If the unit is not restored in the previous operation, unplug and  
plug in the unit, and then turn the power on.  
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking  
can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. Follow  
the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your CD collec-  
tion and player.  
Note:  
Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label  
side from which signals are read. Do not mark this surface.  
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive  
moisture.  
Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on  
the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does  
not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out  
from the center, along the radius.

As part of our policy of continuous improvement, SHARP reserves  
the right to make design and specification changes for product  
improvement without prior notice. The performance specification  
figures indicated are nominal values of production units. There may

Cleaning the tape-handling parts  
Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound and  
tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with  
commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.  
When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc., unplug the unit which  
contains high voltages.
