MAINTENANCE
• Place the set on a hard, flat surface so that the system does not tilt.
• Do not expose the set, CDs, batteries or cassettes to humidity, rain,
sand or excessive heat caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.
• Always shut the CD door to keep the CD compartment dust-free. To
clean, dust the compartment with a soft dry cloth.
• Do not cover the set. Adequate ventilation with a minimum gap of 15
cms between the ventilation holes and surrounding surfaces is
necessary to prevent heat build-up.
• The mechanical parts of the set contain self-lubricating bearings and
must not be oiled or lubricated.
•To clean the set, use a soft, slightly dampened chamois leather. Do not
use any cleaning agents containing alcohol, ammonia, benzene or
abrasives as these may harm the housing.
• The lens of the CD player should never be touched.
• Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause
condensation to form and the lens of your CD player to cloud over.
Playing a CD is then not possible. Do not attempt to clean the lens but
leave the set in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

•To take a CD out of its box, press the centre spindle while lifting the
CD.
Always pick up the CD by the edge and replace the CD back in its box

edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use cleaning agents as they
may damage the disc.
