Care and Maintenance

Disc Handling

• Do not expose discs to heat, direct sunlight, or high humidity. Do not leave discs in a parked vehicle in warm weather.
• Store discs in their cases when not in use.
• Avoid stacking discs or standing them on end, as this can cause them to warp.
• Do not touch the disc surface; hold by the edges.
• Fingerprints, dust, dirt, and scratches can affect playback quality or cause skipping. Be careful of scratches that inhibit the laser beam system.
• Clean discs before use.
• Do not use paper, tape, or adhesive labels on discs. Use permanent markers only on the top side.
• Clean discs with a soft cloth, wiping from the center outwards. Do not wipe in a circular fashion.
• Do not use solvents such as benzene, household cleaning products (except those designed for CD/DVD use), or anti-static spray for vinyl records, as these can damage your device and discs.
• Ensure the label always faces up when inserting discs.

Cleaning the Boombox
