Handling MiniDisc media

❑Attach the labels supplied with MiniDisc media, in the designated location.

❑Do not break open the shutter on the case.

❑Do not place the media where it will be subject to extreme temperatures, moistures, and dust.

❑Always keep media in a safe storage or carrying case.

Cleaning CD or DVD media

❑Fingerprints and dust on the surface of a CD or DVD media may cause read errors. Proper care of the disc is essential to maintain its reliability. Do not use solvents such as benzine, as they may cause damage to the disc. Use commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray.

❑For normal cleaning of a CD or DVD media, hold the disc by its edge and use a soft cloth to wipe the surface from the center out.

❑If the CD or DVD media is badly soiled, slightly moisten a soft cloth with water, and wipe the surface of the disc from the center out. Wipe off any remaining moisture with a dry soft cloth.

Cleaning MiniDisc media
