The CD/DVD player does not
support the playback of DVD video
discs. If a DVD video disc is
inserted into the player, the radio
displays“Read Error Please Check
Disc” and ejects the disc.
Care of CDs and DVDs
If playing a CD/DVD, the sound
quality can be reduced due to disc
quality, the method of recording, the
quality of the music that has been
recorded, and the way the disc has
been handled. Handle discs
carefully. Store CDs and DVDs in
their original cases or other
protective cases and away from
direct sunlight and dust. The CD/
DVD player scans the bottom
surface of the disc. If the surface of
a disc is damaged, such as cracked,
broken, or scratched, the disc may
not play properly or not at all. Do
not touch the bottom side of a disc
while handling it; this could damage
the surface. Pick up discs by
grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge. If the surface of a disc is soiled,
take a soft, lint‐free cloth or dampen
a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral
detergent solution mixed with water,
and clean it. Make sure the wiping
process starts from the center to
the edge.
Care of the CD/DVD Player
Do not add a label to a disc; it could
get caught in the CD/DVD player.
If a label is needed, label the top of
the recorded disc with a
marking pen.
The use of disc lens cleaners for
discs is not advised, due to the risk
of contaminating the lens of the disc
optics with lubricants internal to the
CD/DVD player mechanism.
Notice:
If a label is added to a
disc, or more than one disc is
inserted into the slot at a time,
or an attempt is made to play
scratched or damaged discs, the
CD/DVD player could be
damaged. While using the CD/
DVD player, use only discs in
good condition without any label, load one dosc at a time, and keep
the CD/DVD player and the
loading slot free of foreign
materials, liquids, and debris.
