CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Handling Discs

•To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre of the case and lift the disc out.

•Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious scratches that could cause the laser pickup to skip.

•Hold the disc by the edges, to avoid touching the recorded side of the disc.

•Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped from the disc’s surface with a soft cloth.

•Never use chemicals such as record sprays, antistatic sprays, benzene, or thinners to clean the discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the disc’s surface.

•Audio discs and DVD discs have no grooves to collect dust and microscopic debris so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles.

•Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and light stains should have no effect on reproduction quality.

•Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for extended periods. Exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.

•Do not stick paper or write anything with a ball point pen on the label side of the disc.
