CONCERNING COMPACT DISCS Only compact discs identified with this mark can be used with this player. HANDLING COMPACT DISCS To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges. 5 Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc's recorded surface with a soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves to collect dust and microscopic debris so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on reproduction quality. Never use chemicals such as record sprays, antistatic sprays, benzine, or thinners to clean compact discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the disc's surface. Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious scratches that could cause the Laser pickup to skip. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for extended periods. Press STOP button to stop disc before it is finished. m When CD is playing or on the stop, the display will appear TIME instead of CD track number and time. If you want to display the CD track number and time, press CD DISPLAY button. Notes: - If the disc is deeply scratched, or too dirty, disc play may not start. If an improperly centred disc is played, noise can be heard in the mechanism. The use of such discs should be avoided. - If the disc is inserted incorrectly, or the disc is damaged the display will show No disc. DISC ERRORS This compact disc player has built-in error compensation circuits to correct for minor defects in a disc. There are limits, however, to the amount of correction available. In some cases, the CD player may skip some tracks, or parts of tracks, on a disc during disc play. This problem may be caused by defects (such as scratches) in the disc being played, which are too large for the error compensation circuits to handle.
