Inserting discs

1. Hold the edges of disc with the label side up and insert it into the slot part way as shown in the illustration.
2. Continue pushing the disc in until it is almost completely hidden in the slot and it will be pulled in the rest of the way automatically.
   

If the disc does not load properly

If the disc gets caught or is otherwise difficult to push, do not try to force it into the slot. Press the EJECT () button and remove the disc once and then try to reinsert it. (If you try to force the disc, the disc or this unit could be damaged.)

• Do not play any disc that is warped, deformed or damaged. Playing such discs could cause irreparable harm to the playing mechanisms.
• While printable CD-R and CD-RW discs utilizing modern printing technologies are generally acceptable, older systems that use adhesives to attach paper type labels to the disc surface are not recommended.
• Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do not use any protective coating sprays.
• Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms and cause them to malfunction.
• Do not use irregularly-shaped discs (octagonal, heartshaped, business-card-size, etc.). CDs with these shapes could damage the unit.
  

Storage precautions

• Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid dust and scratches that could cause the laser pickup to "skip."
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high temperature and humidity for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures will warp discs.
• CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important that they are not stored in locations where they will be exposed to direct sunlight. They should also be kept away from sources of heat, such as radiators and heat-generating electrical devices.

Maintenance

• If the side of the disc on which data is recorded has fingerprints or dust on it, use a soft cloth to gently wipe it radially from the center hole toward the outside edge.
  
• Never clean discs using chemicals such as record sprays, antistatic sprays and fluids, and thinner. Such chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc's plastic surface.

If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc or contact the disc manufacturer.
