Precautions When Using Compact
Discs
GB
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 compact disc, always put it back in its
case.
Do not fix paper or adhesive tape to the 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.
COMPACT
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.
