Care of Discs  
How to hold discs  
Cleaning Care  
When loading or removing discs, try not  
to touch their playing surfaces.  
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. For  
stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in  
a
detergent solution; ring well first and  
wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe it dry. Do  
not use any volatile agents such as  
benzine or paint thinner, as they may  
damage the surface of the player.  
Cleaning  
Lens cleaner  
Fingerprints or other dirt on the disc  
may affect sound and picture quality. To  
clean your discs, use a soft clean cloth  
to wipe them. If necessary, moisten a  
soft cloth with diluted neutral detergent  
to remove heavy dirt or fingerprints.  
The player’s pickup lens should not  
become dirty under normal use, but is  
for some reason it should malfunction  
due to soiling, contact your nearest  
WACA authorized service center. Lens  
cleaners are commercially available, but  
special care should be exercised in their  
use since some may cause damage to  
the lens.  
Do not wipe in  
a
circular direction  
(Concentric scratches in the disc groove  
tend to cause noise.) Gently wipe from  
the inside to the outer edge.
