About CD-R/CD-RW
CD-R/RW discs recorded in the Audio CD format and finalized
correctly are playable. Depending on the quality of the disc and/or
the condition of the recording, some CD-R and CD-RW discs may
not be playable.
< If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded
in a compatible format, there are cases in which it may not play
because of the settings of the application software used to create
the disc. (Check with the software publisher for more detailed
information.)
< Unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW discs cannot be played.
The following discs cannot be played with this unit:
and DVD-ROM discs
WARNING:
If you attempt to play back such discs, there is a risk that a sudden
loud noise may be heard over the speakers at full volume and cause

Copy-protected discs, DualDiscs and other discs that do not conform
to the CD standard may not play back correctly in this player. If you
use such discs in this unit, ESOTERIC COMPANY cannot be responsible
for any consequences or guarantee the quality of reproduction. If
you experience problems with such non-standard discs, you should

Discs

CAUTION:
< Do not play any disc that is warped, deformed or damaged.
Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to the playback
mechanisms.
< Printable CD-R and CD-RW discs are not recommended, as the
label side might be sticky and damage the unit. This also includes
PC produced discs where a stick on label has been used.
< Do not stick papers, stability pads 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 discs (octagonal, heart shaped,
business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit.
Handling precautions
< Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side
uppermost. 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.
How to remove the disc
Maintenance
< If the disc becomes dirty, wipe the surface radially from the center
hole outward towards the outer edge with a soft and dry cloth.
< Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or
fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do
irreparable damage to the disc's plastic surface.
Storage precautions
< 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-temperature
and humidity for extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures will warp the disc.
< CD-R and CD-RW 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 away from sources of heat such as radiators or heat-
generating electrical devices.
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a CD-R or CD-RW
disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or contact the disc
manufacturer.
