Notes On Discs - Sony MEX-1HD Operating Instructions Manual

Notes on discs

• To keep the disc clean, do not touch the surface.
Handle the disc by its edge.
• Keep your discs in their cases or disc
magazines when not in use.
Do not subject the discs to heat/high
temperature. Avoid leaving them in parked cars
or on dashboards/rear trays.
• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky
ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning
when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin
the disc.
• Do not use any discs with labels or stickers
attached as this may cause inability to read
audio data correctly (e.g., playback skipping, or
no playback) due to heat shrinking of a sticker
or label causing a disc to warp.
• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart,
square, star) cannot be played on this unit.
Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do
not use such discs.
• Before playing, clean discs with a
commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe
each disc from the center out. Do not use
solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended
for analog discs.
