Cleaning tips for compact discs used in your Samsung compact stereo system

• Proper cleaning of compact discs ensures that the CD player in your compact stereo system can read and play the disc properly.
• Before inserting a compact disc in the CD player, wipe the disc with a soft, lint-free cleaning cloth. Wipe the media side of the disc from the center of the disc to the outer edge.
• Clean compact discs regularly to enjoy accurate and trouble-free playback in your CD player.
• Inspect the compact disc before inserting it in your CD player for playback. Clean the compact disc if you see fingerprints, debris or deposits on the media surface of the disc.
• Use CD cleaning detergent, isopropyl alcohol or methanol to clean stubborn dirt or deposits from discs. Don't use solvents such as benzene, thinner or other harsh cleaners to clean compact discs. Don't use anti-static spray intended for vinyl LP records on compact discs.

Troubleshooting your Samsung compact stereo system when it won't power up

• If you're using the remote control to attempt to power up the compact stereo system, try using the power button on the system to power it up.
• If the compact stereo system won't power up when you press the power button on the player, check the power cord. Plug the compact stereo power cord securely into the electrical wall outlet if the outlet cord plug is loose.
• If the compact stereo power cord is properly plugged into the electrical wall outlet, check the electrical outlet for power by plugging a different item into the wall outlet. If the wall outlet is dead, reset the house circuit breaker for the wall outlet. Have an electrician repair the wall outlet if it remains dead after resetting the house circuit breaker.
• If you have the compact stereo plugged into a surge protector, check for a tripped circuit breaker on the surge protector. Reset the surge protector circuit breaker if it's tripped.
• If the compact stereo is getting power through the power cord but won't power up, you may need to replace the power supply board in the compact stereo system.
