CD/DVD Player
The CD/DVD player can play CDs,
DVD‐As, MP3/WMA CDs, MP3/
WMA DVDs, and DVD‐Vs.
The CD/DVD player will not play
8 cm (3 in) discs.
Care of CDs and DVDs
Sound quality can be reduced due
to disc quality, recording method,
quality of the music recorded, and
how the disc has been handled.
Handle discs carefully and store
them in their original cases or other
protective cases away from direct
sunlight and dust. If the bottom
surface of a disc is damaged, the
disc may not play properly or at all.
Do not touch the bottom surface 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 bottom surface of a disc is
dirty, take a soft lint‐free cloth,
or dampen a clean soft cloth in amild neutral detergent solution
mixed with water, and clean it.
Wipe the disc from the center to the
outer edge.
Care of the CD/DVD Player
Do not add a label to a disc, as 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.
Do not use disc lens cleaners
because they could contaminate the
lens of the disc optics and damage
the CD/DVD player.
Notice:
If a label is added to a
CD, more than one CD is inserted
into the slot at a time, or an
attempt is made to play scratched
or damaged CDs, the CD player
