Storing discs
Although CDs and DVDs are more durable than vinyl

excessively cold, humid, or hot environments (includ-
ing under direct sunlight).
Dont glue paper or put stickers on discs, or write on
them using a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-
tipped writing instrument.
Discs to avoid
Discs spin at high speed during playback. If you can see
that a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise
damaged, dont risk using ityou could end up
damaging the system.
This system is designed for use with conventional, fully
circular discs only. Use of shaped discs is not recom-
mended. Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in
connection with the use of shaped CDs and DVDs.
