Requirements for good sound reproduction
It is possible that you may not be able to play CDs which are copy-protected
or CDs containing CD ROM format that do not correspond to the standard for
audio CDs in your player. Only CDs that comply with this standard have the
logo "Compact Disc Digital Audio" printed on the CD.
Please note the following in order to ensure perfect high-quality sound repro-
duction and avoid damage to media drives:
•
Do not use dirty CDs
•
Do not use damaged or scratched CDs
•
Do not use labels
•
Do not use protective rings
•
Do not use a CD cover or a stabiliser
•
Do not use non-circular CDs (shape CDs)
•
Do not use single CDs (8 cm / 3" in diameter)
Always store unused CDs in a suitable CD case and do not expose them to
direct sunlight.
Cleaning media drives and CDs
Never use a CD player cleaning disc to clean drives.
Clean CDs with a soft lint-free cloth. Wipe the disc in a straight line from the
centre outwards. If necessary, stubborn stains can be removed with a
commercially available CD cleaner or with isopropyl alcohol. Please never use
petrol, paint thinner or record cleaner, as these can damage the CDs.
