Notes about the discs
* Handle the discs carefully so as not to scratch their
surfaces.
* Keep the surfaces of the discs clean at all times.
When cleaning the surfaces of discs, always be sure to
use the special cleaner and wipe the surfaces in the
directions shown in the figure below.
• Wipe the surface radially
from the center.
* Do not attach pieces of paper or stickers to the label
surfaces of the discs.
When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental CD label
with paste protruding from the edge or when a disc still
bears traces of sticky tape or adhesive labels, do not
attempt to play it. If such a disc is played on the CD player,
you may find that you cannot remove it or that some other
kind of malfunctioning may occur.
* Do not use discs which come in special shapes.
Do not attempt to play heart-shaped or octagonal discs or
discs with any other special shapes. You may find that
you cannot remove them or that some other kind of
malfunctioning may occur in the player.

with the "CD logo" or "
surfaces.
No guarantees are made for playback if discs which do
not satisfy the appropriate CD standards are used.
Similarly, no guarantees are made for their sound quality
even if it is possible to play such discs.

they will be close to a heater or other heat-radiating
