Cassette Deck Operation

• Always handle a CD by the edges to

avoid fingerprints and always keep it in

its protective case or sleeve when it is

not in use. Fingerprints and scratches

on the CD’s surface can prevent the

laser beam from correctly reading the

digital information. If the CD gets

scratched, use RadioShack Scratch ‘n

Fix to repair the disc.

If the radio is subjected to a sudden shock or

jolt during play, the CD's rotation speed

might be briefly interrupted. This is not a mal-

function.

Cautions:

• To avoid damaging the CD player, do

not place anything but a CD in the CD

compartment.

• Remove any loaded CD from the CD

compartment before moving the system

to avoid damaging the CD.

• Moving the radio suddenly from a cold

place to a warmer one can cause mois-

ture to form on the CD player's pickup

lens and disrupt operation. If this hap-

pens, unplug the radio, then wait about

an hour before plugging it back in and

playing a CD.

they are thin and can tangle easily. For
