<Notes on handling of discs>

•When handling a disc, be careful not to dirty or scratch the surface of the disc.

We recommend that you hold the disc with your finger on the disc edge and center hole.

•Do not stick any paper, etc. on the label side. Also do not scratch the label side, which may cause problems during playback or recording. Use only a felt pen or equivalent for writing any memo on the label side. Using a ball-point pen, pencil, etc. that has a hard tip may damage a disc.

•Never use a warped or chipped disc, which may damage the CD-RW drive.
