Choice of CD-R / CD-RW discs
This player can play most CD-R and CD-RW discs. However, depending on the recorder of your
personal computer,the type of disc and recording method used, it may be that some discs cannot
be played, or that the performance does not meet the expected standard of quality.When playing
a CD-R disc, it is completely normal for the unit to take up to 20 seconds to recognize the disc
before starting to play.If the disc is not recognized after a period of 20 seconds, remove the disc,
and then insert it again.
• Whatever the actual recording capacity of a disc, do not fill it to maximum capacity.
• Use CD-R discs rather than CD-RW (re-recordable CDs),as replay of
CD-RWs may sometimes not work properly.
• Use a reliable and good quality recording software.
• Before recording on a disc, close all applications on you personal computer in order to
optimise the quality and reliability of recordings on the disc.
Video CD (VCD) discs
VCD (Video Compact Disc) discs enable up to 74 minutes of VHS quality video associated with
still pictures,audio tracks and interactive menus to be recorded on a CD.
Care of discs
Always handle your discs with care. Hold a disc with fingers on the border or hole.Always place
disc with the label facing upward (in case of a single-sided disc).Always place the disc properly
into the tray using the proper guide area.Always use a soft cloth to clean discs if necessary,wipe
from the centre to the border.Always put discs back into their cases after playing and store in a
vertical position. Never use record cleaning sprays, benzine, static electricity liquids or any other
solvent,if the disc surface is dirty.Wipe gently with a soft damp (water only) cloth, never wipe the
disc in a circular motion,since circular scratches are likely to occur and could cause noise during
playback.
