To avoid damaging a disc, follow these guidelines:

Return the disc to the case when you are finished using it.

Handle the disc by its outside edges or center hole only.

Do not touch the unlabeled side of a disc or place the unlabeled side down on your desk. Doing so could scratch the surface of the disc.
