CD CARE
HANDLING CD_; :
Always handle CDs by their edges or hold it with your
index finger in the hole and a thumb at one edge. Do not
put your finger pads onto the signal (shiny) side of a disc.
The label side of a disc should be left as is; should not
affix any adhesive tapes or labels nor should there be any
scratching or damage done to it.
Never use any damaged (such as cracked or warped) discs
as the system spins CDs at very high speed.
CLEANING COs :
CD LENS CARE
CDs need to be cleaned regularly because any dust or
foreign particles may cause the system to output poor
sound quality. To clean a CD, use a soft clean cloth to
wipe the CD from the hole (at the center of the disc)
outwards to the disc's edge.
If a CD is particularly dirty, wet a soft cloth in clean
water, wring it out to rid the cloth.of excess water, gently
wipe away the dirt. Use another dry cloth to soak up
remaining water droplets.
Cleaning liquids other than clean water can damage a
CD. Never use cleaning sprays, antistatic agents, benzene,
thinner, nor any other volatile solvents to clean CDs.
When your CD lens gets dirty it can also cause the system to output poor
sound quality. To clean the lens you will need to purchase a CD lens cleaner
which can maintain the output sound quality of your system. For instructions
on cleaning the CD lens, refer to the ones accompanying the lens cleaner.
