I've used it in my unit with no ill-effect.
I can understand it with the head cleaner, but not the lens cleaner. I read
through the instructions included with my 6LCL and there was no warning of
that nature.
Adios,

Subject: MD: MD Lens Cleaners (anyone remember this thread?)
Just a final note on the MD Lens Cleaner discussion - I've had the
opportunity of checking out a Sony MD-6LCL lens cleaning MD in the flesh.
It looks like a pre-recorded MD - shutter on one side only. You insert the
thing in the MD unit and press track 2, and it beeps when the job is done.
Apparently tracks 3 and 5 have a music selection on them -presumably for
testing the cleaning job. I can't figure out how it works, but the sales
assistance said it uses a brush.
Anyhow, the packaging suggests you use it once every 2 weeks. The assistant
suggest once every 6 months. Anyhow, the upshot is Sony say you should use
it as regular maintenance, not as a "fix" in the case of malfunction. Take
from that what you will. Once it's been used 50 times you have to throw it
out and buy a new one.
What's interesting you CAN'T use it is car MD headunits, apparently. No
indication why (that kind of prevents me from buying one, because my Sony
car MD is the unit I'm most concerned about).
