Never use chemicals such as record sprays antistatic sprays, benzene, or thinners to clean compact discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the disc's surface. Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious scratches that could cause the Laser pickup to skip. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.
If the disc is inserted incorrectly, or the disc is damaged the display will show "No disc". DISC ERRORS This compact disc player has built-in error compensation circuits to correct for minor defects in a disc. There are limits, however, to the amount of correction available.
