7Handling Discs

Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge while pressing the center hole lightly.

Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc or bend the disc.

Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping.

Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when placing it back in its case.

Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperature and moisture.

To clean the disc

Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

• DO NOT use any solvent — such as conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner or benzine — to clean the disc.

7Cleaning the system

Stains on the system should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the system is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

Since the system may deteriorate in quality, become damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the following.

DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.

DO NOT wipe it forcefully.

DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.

DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecticides to it.

DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact with it for a long time.
