Disc Care

[RAM] Use cartridges to protect them from scratches and dirt.

Holding a disc

Handle discs by the edges to avoid inadvertently scratching or getting oil from your ﬁ ngers on the disc. Do not touch the signal surface of discs (the shiny side).

Cleaning discs

Discs are not indestructible and occasionally dirt or condensation may appear. Clean by gently wiping with a soft, dry lint-free cloth in a straight line from the centre of the disc to the edge of the disc. Return discs to their cases when not in use; this helps to protect against scratches and dirt.

Storing discs

Do not place or store discs in the following locations:

–Direct sunlight

–Very dusty or humid areas

–Near a heat source

–Places that undergo extreme shifts in temperature (condensation can occur)

–Where static electricity or electromagnetic waves occur
