■Introduction : Open Accessory

Open Accessory support allows external USB hardware (an Android USB accessory) to interact with an Android-powered device in a special accessory mode. When an Android-powered device is in accessory mode, the connected accessory acts as the USB host (powers the bus and enumerates devices) and the Android-powered device acts in the USB accessory role. Android USB accessories are specifically designed to attach to Android-powered devices and adhere to the Open Accessory Protocol, that allows them to detect Android-powered devices that support accessory mode.

■Before transporting the unit

Remove all devices connected to the unit. Then, set the unit to the power standby mode. Carrying the unit with other devices left connected or discs left inside might damage the unit.

■Care of discs

Discs are fairly resistant to damage. However mistracking can occur due to accumulation of dirt on the surface.

• Do not mark on the non-label side of the disc from which signals are read.
• Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive moisture.
  ●Always hold the discs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. Clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out from the center, along the radius.

Maintenance

■Cleaning the cabinet

Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted soap solution, then with a dry cloth.

Caution:

• Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint thinner, etc.). It may damage the cabinet.
• Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause malfunctions.
