When playing audio CDs, note the following:
• PMD-100CD can play Music CDs and CD-R discs. Both are usually marked with
the Compact Disc Digital Audio logo (see image).
• Do not play discs in non-circular shapes (heart-shaped discs, octagonal discs, etc.;
see image) or discs that have been repaired with adhesive or tape. These can
damage the unit.
• PMD-100CD can play finalized discs only. (Finalization is the process that makes
recorded CD-R discs playable on compatible players.)

not play correctly.

appear correctly.

letters, numbers, and symbols can be displayed. Japanese file names will not be shown. File names that begin

Be careful not to scratch discs when removing them from their cases. Do not bend or heat discs,
and do not enlarge the hole in the center of the disc. Do not write on the labeled surface of the
disc or attach new labels to discs.
If fingerprints, dirt, or condensation are on a disc, clean it with a commercially available disc
cleaning set or a soft, dry cloth. Gently wipe it from the inside towards the outside, not in a circular
motion. Do not use record spray, antistatic agents, benzene, thinner, or other solvents.
After using discs, remove them from the unit and store them in their cases to protect them from
dust, scratches, warping, etc. Do not store discs in places exposed to long periods of direct
sunlight or places exposed to heat, dust, humidity, etc.
