Pioneer Elite Pd-m59 6-disc Compact Disc Cd Changer (2000)

The worst that can happen is the CD will not play properly. There may be audible noise, it may fail to track properly, abort at random times, or not even be recognized. The electronics will not melt down.

It is just about impossible for a dirty CD to do any damage to the player. A dirty lens will only result in disc recognition or play problems similar to those caused by a dirty CD. The laser will not catch fire.

The only way damage could occur is if you loaded a cracked CD and the crack caught on the lens.

You do not need any fancy CD cleaners in any case - soap or mild detergent and water and a soft cloth are all that are required. If the CD looks clean, it probably will be fine. If there are serious smudges or fingerprints, then cleaning could make a significant difference in performance.

For further information, see the sections "CD cleaning" and "General inspection, cleaning, and lubrication".
