Handling MDs

The MD is enclosed in a cartridge to protect the disc from debris or fingerprints and to make it easy to handle. However, the presence of debris or a warped cartridge may inhibit the disc from operating properly. To ensure that you can always listen to the highest quality music, follow the precautions below:

•Do not touch the internal disc directly. Forcing the shutter open may damage the internal disc.

•Be sure to stick the labels supplied with the md to the appropriate positions. The shape of the labels may vary depending on the MD brand.
