Cleaning Your Mini-Compact System

To obtain the best possible results from your mini-compact system, you
must clean the following elements regularly:
The outer casing
◆
The compact disc player
◆
The cassette players (heads, rollers and drive capstans)
◆
Always unplug the system from the wall outlet:
Before cleaning it
◆
If you are not going to be using it for a long time
◆
Outer Casing
Clean the outer casing regularly using a soft cloth and a light detergent.
Do not use abrasive powders, liquids or aerosol cleaners. Never let any liquids
get into the system.
Compact Disc Player
1
Before playing a compact disc, clean it with a special CD cleaning
agent. Do not use the same cleaning agents as for vinyl LP records.
Carefully wipe the disc from the Center outward.
2
Regularly clean the player with a special cleaning disc (available from
your local dealer).
If you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove
◆
the batteries to prevent corrosion.
Although your system is very hard-wearing, it should not be used in
◆
an excessively dusty environment or subjected to shocks or extreme
heat (close to heating appliances or in direct sunlight, etc.).
If the unit emits an unpleasant odor when in use, unplug it from the
◆
main supply and contact the after-sales service.

Precautions When Using Compact Discs

Handle your compact discs with care.
◆
Always hold them by the edges to avoid
leaving fingerprints on the shiny surface.
When you have finished playing a compac
◆
disc, always put it back in its case.
Do not fix paper or adhesive tape to the
◆
VOLUME
discs and do not write on the label.
Clean them with a special-purpose cloth.
◆
Store your compact discs in a clean place,
◆
out of direct sunlight, where they will not be
exposed to high temperatures.
Always use compact discs marked
◆

Precautions When Using Audio Cassettes

Check that the tape in the cassette is sufficiently taut.
◆
To prevent erasing a cassette that you wish to keep, remove the safety
◆
tab on the upper edge of the cassette.
To record a cassette, where the tab has been broken, simply cover the
opening with adhesive tape.
When you have finished playing a cassette, always put it back in its case.
◆
Store your cassettes in a clean place, out of direct sunlight, where they
◆
will not be exposed to high temperatures.
Avoid using 120-minute cassettes as they place unnecessary strain on the tape
◆
mechanism.
