Damaged Disc

Do not attempt to play damaged, warped or cracked discs. These could severely damage the playback mechanism.

When not in use, place your discs in their individual case and store them in a cool place away from the sun, heat, and dust.

Do not grip or pull out the disc with your hand while the disc is being pulled into the unit by the self loading mechanism.
