Handling of discs  
Disc handling precautions  
Handling  
Discs which can be played with this unit  
CD (12 cm, 8 cm), and the audio part of CDV, CD-G, CD-EG  
and CD-EXTRA.  
Hold the discs so that you do not  
touch the playing surface.  
Use discs that comply with the IEC standard, for example  
COMPACT  
a disc carrying the  
marking on the label surface.  
DIGITAL AUDIO  
Label side  
Playing side  
Never play a cracked or warped disc  
During playback, the disc rotates at high speed in the player.  
Therefore, to avoid danger, never use a cracked or deformed  
disc or a disc repaired with tape or adhesive agent.  
Please do not use discs which are not round because they  
may cause a malfunction.  
Sticker  
Do not attach paper or tape to ei-  
ther the playing side or the label side  
of the discs.  
Pprasection  
Sticky paste  
Disc accessories  
Cleaning  
The disc accessories (stabilizer, protection sheet, protec-  
tion ring, etc.) which are marketed for improving the sound  
quality or protecting discs as well as the disc cleaner should  
not be used with this system because they may cause  
malfunction.  
If fingerprints or foreign matter be-  
come attached to the disc, lightly  
wipe the disc with a soft cotton cloth  
(or similar) from the center of the disc  
outwards in a radial manner.  
Storage  
When a disc is not to be played for  
a long period of time, remove it from  
the player and store it in its case.  
Notes on cassette tape  
Safety tab (accidental erasure prevention tab)  
After an important recording has been finished, break the  
safety tab, to prevent the recorded contents from being  
erased or recorded on accidentally.  
To store cassette tapes  
Do not store the tapes in a place which is subject to  
direct sunlight, or near equipment that generates heat.  
Keep the cassette tapes away from any magnetic field.  
ForAside  
ForBside  
When there is slack in the tape  
Insuchacase,insertapencilintothereelholeandwind  
the reel hub to remove the slack.  
Apply tape only to the position where  
the tab has been removed.  
To re-record  
1.Longer tape than 110 minutes cassette tape  
Since longer tape than 110 minutes cassette tape is very thin, the tape could adhere to the pinch roller or be  
easily broken. It is recommended that these tapes not be used with this unit to prevent possible damage.  
2.Endless tapes  
NNootteess  
Do not use an endless tape, as this could damage the mechanism of the unit.
