General Information●When using CD-R/CD-RW discs,
use only high quality CDs labeled
for audio use.●When recording a CD-R/CD-RW,
the recording must be closed for it
to be used by the system.●Play only standard round CDs.
Odd-shaped CDs may jam in the
drive or cause other problems.●Handle your CDs properly to
prevent damage and skipping.
Protecting CDsWhen a CD is not being played, store
it in its case to protect it from dust
and other contamination. To prevent
warpage, keep CDs out of direct
sunlight and extreme heat.
To clean a CD, use a clean soft cloth.
Wipe across the CD from the center
to the outside edge.
A new CD may be rough on the inner
and outer edges. The small plastic
pieces causing this roughness can
flake off and fall on the recording
surface of the CD, causing skipping
or other problems. Remove these
pieces by rubbing the inner and
outer edges with the side of a pencil
or pen.
Never try to insert foreign objects in
the disc changer.
Handle a CD by its edges; never
touch either surface. Do not place
stabilizer rings or labels on the CD.
These, along with contamination
from fingerprints, liquids, and felt-tip
pens, can cause the CD to not play
properly or possibly jam in the drive.
