Handling of discs
Heed the following notes on handling of discs to avoid any
cause for a recording failure, a loss of the recorded data, or a
malfunction of this unit.
• This compact disc recorder is designed for use with CDs
(including 8 cm [3”] discs) bearing the , , or
marks only. Never attempt to load any other type of
disc into this unit.
• CDs are not subjected to wear during play. However if the
disc is handled improperly, damage may be created on the
disc to adversely affect the disc’s play.
• When writing on the label side of CD-R or CD-RW discs,
use an oil-based felt-tipped pen.
• Do not use cleaning discs or warped discs. All of these
could damage this unit.
• Although playback of CDs is generally not affected by small
particles of dust or fingerprints on their playing surface,
dust, fingerprints, small scratches and direct sunlight on
the recording surface of a CD-R or CD-RW disc may make
recording impossible. Therefore, for optimal performance
of the recorder and for long-term enjoyment of your CD
collection, handle discs correctly as outlined in the
following guidelines.
1 Hold discs by touching only the edges or center hole.
2 When a disc is not currently being used, remove it from the
recorder and store in an appropriate case.
3 With proper disc maintenance, cleaning should not be
necessary. However, should cleaning be required, wipe by
using a clean, dry cloth. Do not wipe with a circular motion;
wipe straight outward from the center.
• Do not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any type of
disc cleaner, record spray, antistatic spray or liquid, or any
other chemical-based liquid, because such substances
might irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature,
or high humidity for a long period of time, because this
might warp or otherwise damage the disc.
To prevent a malfunction of this unit
• Do not use any non-standard shaped CDs (heart, flower
shaped, etc.) available on the market, because they are off
balance in their weight.
If a non-standard shaped CD is loaded into this unit, it may
create problems such as improper playback, opening of
the disc tray, usual noise, and this unit’s failure.
• Be sure to use a felt-tip pen or similar writing tool when
writing on the label side of the disc. Do not use a ballpoint
pen, pencil, or other hard-tipped writing tool, as these may
damage the disc and may adversely affect further
recording on the disc.
• Do not use discs with glue left on their surface. They may
get stuck in this unit or create damage to this unit.
• When using an 8 cm (3”) disc, do not place a normal 12
cm (5”) disc on top of it.
• Do not use discs printed with commercially available label
printers.
