Handle discs carefully, especially when
inserting them. Hold them on the edge
and do not bend them. Avoid getting
fingerprints on them, particularly on the
shiny side.
Dirt, scratches, warping, pin holes or
other disc damage could cause the
player to skip or to repeat a section of a
track. (To see a pin hole, hold the disc
up to the light.)
Remove discs from the players when
not in use. Store them in their plastic
cases away from moisture, heat and
direct sunlight.
To clean a disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint-
free cloth that has been dampened with
water. Wipe in a straight line from the
centre to the edge of the disc (not in cir-
cles). Dry it with another soft, lint-free
cloth. Do not use a conventional record
cleaner or anti-static device.
CD-R/CD-RW discs that have not been
subject to the “finalizing process” (a
process that allows discs to be played
on a conventional CD player) cannot be
played.
It may not be possible to play CD-R/
CD-RW discs recorded on a music CD
recorder or a personal computer
because of disc characteristics,
scratches or dirt on the disc, or dirt,
condensation, etc. on the lens of the
unit.
It may not be possible to play discs
recorded on a personal computer
depending on the application settings
and the environment. Record with the
correct format. (For details, contact the
appropriate application manufacturers
of the applications.)
CD-R/CD-RW discs may be damaged
by direct exposure to sunlight, high
temperatures or other storage condi-
tions. The unit may be unable to play
some damaged discs.
If you insert a CD-RW disc into the
player, playback will begin more
slowly than with a conventional CD or
CD-R disc.
Recordings on CD-R/CD-RW cannot
be played using the DDCD (Double
Density CD) system.

DVD video discs: Digital Versatile Disc
that holds video. DVD video discs have
adopted “MPEG2”, one of the world
standards of digital compression tech-
nologies. The picture data is com-
pressed by 1/40 on average and stored.
Variable rate encoded technology in
which the volume of data assigned to the
picture is changed depending on the pic-
ture format has also been adopted. Au-
dio data is stored using PCM and Dolby
Digital, which enables higher quality of
sound. Furthermore, multi-angle and
multi-language features will also help
users enjoy the more advanced technol-
ogy of DVD video.

vided on DVD players and DVD discs.
