ENGLISH Discs Discs that can be played on this unit: • Commercial audio CD's bearing the "Compact Disc Digital Audio" logo: ? • Properly finalized CD-R discs Note: < Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the condition of the recording, some CD-R discs may not be playable. < CD-RW discs cannot be played on this unit. < Copy-protected discs and other discs which do not conform to the CD standard may not play back correctly in this player. If you use such discs in this unit, TEAC Corporation and its subsidiaries cannot be responsible for any consequences or guarantee the quality of reproduction. If you experience problems with such non-standard discs, you should contact the producers of the disc. < Always load the disc with the label side facing you. (Compact discs can be played or recorded only on one side.) < To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges. < Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or fluid, benzene or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc's plastic surface. < 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 humidity and temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures will warp the disc. < CD-R discs are more sensitive to the effects of heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important that they are not stored in a location where direct sunlight will fall on them and which is away from sources of heat such as radiators or heat-generating electrical devices. < Printable CD-R discs aren't recommended, as the label side might be sticky and damage the unit. < Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do not use any protective coating spray. < Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information on the label side. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this may cause damage to the recorded side. < Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms and cause them to malfunction. < Do not use irregular shape CDs (octagonal, heart-shape, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit. How to remove the disc How to hold the disc < If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a CD-R disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or contact the disc manufacturer directly. < Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface radially with a soft, dry cloth. Never clean the disc using a circular motion. 3
