COMPACT DISCS

The glossy side shining like a rainbow is the front side of the
disc, and the side on which the label is printed is the bacir.

ENGLISH

Unlike conventional tumtabies for playing analogue discs, the
Di-lQfiflO Music Server reads the information recorded on the
disc from underneath without contacting it using a beam of
laser light. Therefore, the performance of a compact disc will
not degrade like conventional analogue records.

Handle discs carefully so as not to damage or scratch
the front side.

To protect the disc avoid placing it in the following
locations:

- In direct sunlight or near a source of heat like a heater.
- in a place which is damp or dirty.

- In a place which could be exposed to rain, such as
near a window.

Always keep the surface of the disc clean.

Up to six bittion data units are recorded on the front side of
the disc. When cleaning the disc surface always be sure to
use a special compact disc cleaner. Do not use a
conventional record ciean or for analogue records, as this
will adversely affect the disc surface.

Store discs properly by placing them in their disc cases.

Do not attach a piece of paper or sticker on the label
side ofthe disc.

When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental CD labei
with paste protruded from the edge or when a disc has a
trace of such a sticky obiect, do not attempt to piay the disc.
if such a disc is inserted into the Music Server it may cause
extensive damage to the system. It may aiso be impossibie
to remove the disc.

Do not use a disc with a special shape.

Do not attempt to use a disc with a special shape such as a
heart-shaped disc or octagonal disc. This may cause the
system to malfunction.
