Cleaning the Recorder

Such chemicals may discolor the surface or damage the Recorder.
Cleaning Discs
• When a Disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth.Wipe the Disc from the center to the edge in a straight line. Do
not wipe the Disc in a circular motion.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for analog discs.
• Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.
Checking the Laser or Lens
• If the Recorder does not operate as described in this manual, the Recorder’s laser may be dirty. Consult an Authorized
Service Center for inspection and cleaning of the laser.
• The lens may cloud over if you suddenly move the Recorder from cold to warm surroundings. Playing a Disc is not possible
then. Leave the power on for about one hour with no Disc in the Recorder until normal playback is possible.
Caring for Video Cassettes
• Use only cassettes with the mark.
• Remove any light adhesive stick-on notes from the video cassette before putting the cassette in the VCR. Removable labels
can jam the VCR.
Caring for the VCR’s Video Heads

Cleaner. However, the video heads will require replacement eventually. Only an authorized service center should perform
this service.
