Cleaning
the
player
•
Use
a
soft,
clean
cloth
to
wipe
off
dust and
dirt
ac-
cumulated
on VP-1000.
If
necessary, moisten a
soft
cloth
with
diluted
neutral detergent
to
remove heavy
dirt.
• Never
use
paint-thinner,
benzene,
or
other
solvents.
They
react
with
the
surface and cause
color
changes and
melting
.
Laser disc Care
• Laser discs are made
of
hard plastic . Use a
commercial
phonograph
record cleaner
or
soft
cloth
to
lightly
wipe
SPECIFICATIONS
off
dust and
dirt.
• Finger
prints
and
dust
on the laser disc
do
not
affect
the
recorded signal. However, excessive
dirt
may interfere
with
reproduced
picture
quality,
so
it
is
a good idea
to
keep
the
laser discs clean .
•
Therefore,
it
is
best
to
handle laser discs by
the
outer
edges
and center
hole
only,
just
as
you
would
do
with
ordinary
phonograph records.
•
Always
replace discs in
their
jackets after
use.
To
pre-
vent warping, keep discs away
from
high temperature
and
humidity.
