Playing side

Never play a cracked or warped disc

Sticker

During playback, the disc rotates at high speed in the player.

Therefore, to avoid danger, never use a cracked or deformed

disc or a disc repaired with tape or adhesive agent.

Please do not use discs which are not round because they

may cause a malfunction.

Do not attach paper or tape to ei-

ther the playing side or the label side

of the discs.

Sticky paste

Cleaning

If fingerprints or foreign matter be-

come attached to the disc, lightly

wipe the disc with a soft cotton cloth

(or similar) from the center of the disc

outwards in a radial manner.

Storage

When a disc is not to be played for

a long period of time, remove it

from the player and store it in its

case.

Disc accessories

The disc accessories (stabilizer, protection sheet, protec-

tion ring, etc.) which are marketed for improving the sound

quality or protecting discs as well as the disc cleaner should

not be used with this system because they may cause

malfunction.

As the Mini Disc is accommodated inside a cartridge, it can be handled without caring about dust or fingerprint.

However, stained or soiled cartridge may cause malfunction. To enjoy beautiful sound for extended period of

time, take care on the following points.

Do not touch the disc directly.

Do not touch the disc by opening the shutter with your

hand. The cartridge will be damaged if it is forced open.

Care

Wipe periodically dust and dirt attached on the cartridge

with a dry cloth.
