Additional Information

Handling discs

When holding discs of any type, take care not to leave
fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the disc surface. Hold
the disc by its edge or by the center hole and edge.
Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback perfor-
mance. Take care also not to scratch the label side of
the disc. Although not as fragile as the recorded side,
scratches can still result in a disc becoming unusable.
Should a disc become marked with fingerprints, dust,
etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly
from the center to the outside edge as shown in the
diagram below.
Wipe lightly from the
center of the disc using
straight strokes.
If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a
commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to clean a
disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or
other cleaning agents, including products designed for
cleaning vinyl records.

Storing discs

Although CDs and DVD discs are more durable than
vinyl records, you should still take care to handle and
store discs correctly. When you're not using a disc,
return it to its case and store upright. Avoid leaving
discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot environments
(including under direct sunlight).
Don't glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a
pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped writing
instrument. These could all damage the disc.
For more detailed care information see the instructions
that come with discs.
Do not load more than one disc into the player.

Don't wipe the disc surface
using circular strokes.

Discs to avoid

Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If you
can see that a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or
otherwise damaged, don't risk using it in your
player—you could end up damaging the unit.
This unit is designed for use with conventional,
fully circular discs only. Use of shaped discs is not
recommended for this product.

Cleaning the pickup lens

The DVD player's lens should not become dirty in
normal use, but if for some reason it should
malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your
nearest MARANTZ-authorized service center.
Although lens cleaners for CD players are commer-
cially available, we do not recommend using them
since some may damage the lens.

Problems with condensation

Condensation may form inside the player if it is
brought into a warm room from outside, or if the
temperature of the room rises quickly. Although
the condensation won't damage the player, it may
temporarily impair its performance. For this reason
you should leave it to adjust to the warmer
temperature for about an hour before switching
on and using.
