GENERAL INFORMATION
Maintenance
The disc
If you handle the discs carefully, cleaning will not be
necessary. Dust or dirt can be removed using a soft,
lint-free cloth. Always wipe the cloth in a straight line
from the centre to the edge of the disc (Fig. 4).
Never use cleaning agents such as are used for
conventional grammophone records.
Never write on the disc label or on a sticker which has
been placed on the label. This can cause irreparable
damage to the music tracks.
The player
Never oil or lubricate the CD mechanism. Keep the
CD compartment free of dust. The CD tray should
therefore never be left open unnecessarily.
This unit complies with the radio interference require¬
ments as laid down in EC regulations.
