Toshiba SD-R5372 user manual Emergency Ejection, Handling Media, Cleaning Media

NOTE: High-speed drives spin the disc at a high rotational speed. If a disc has printing on only half of the disc, or if there is a slight imbalance in the disc, the imbalance is greatly magnified by the high speed, causing the drive to vibrate or produce a fan-like noise. These effects are inherent in the high-speed technology and do not indicate a problem with the drive.

Handling Media

DVD media is sensitive to dust and fingerprints. Carefully handle media by its edges only. If a DVD movie

skips or hangs during playback, clean the media. Most DVD video playback issues are media-related

and can be remedied by proper handling and care of media.

Cleaning Media

Try to avoid touching the read area (underside) of the disc as dirt and smears will degrade the disc

accessing speed.

If the disc becomes dirty wipe it with a damp soft cloth. Avoid cleaning in a circular motion, but rather

from the inner side outward.
