Storage Precautions - Teac PD-501HR Mode D'emploi

Discs (2)
CAUTION
o Do not play any disc that is warped, deformed or dam-
aged. Playing such discs could cause irreparable harm
to the playing mechanisms.
o While printable CD-R and CD-RW discs utilizing mod-
ern printing technologies are generally acceptable,
older systems that use adhesives to attach paper type
labels to the disc surface are not recommended.
o Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs
and do not use any protective coating sprays.
o Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD
stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms
and cause them to malfunction.
o Do not use irregularly-shaped discs (octagonal, heart-
shaped, business-card-size, etc.). CDs with these shapes
could damage the unit.

Storage precautions

o Discs should be returned to their cases after use to
avoid dust and scratches that could cause the laser
pickup to "skip."
o Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high tempera-
ture and humidity for extended periods. Long exposure
to high temperatures will warp discs.
o 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 locations where
they will be exposed to direct sunlight. They should
also be kept away from sources of heat, such as radia-
tors and heat-generating electrical devices.
Maintenance
o If a disc becomes dirty, wipe its surface radially from
the center hole outward towards the outer edge with a
soft, dry cloth.
o Never clean discs using chemicals such as record
sprays, antistatic sprays and fluids, and thinner. Such
chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc's plas-
tic surface.
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a
disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc or con-
tact the disc manufacturer.
