Disc Handling & Maintenance

Handling Precautions

Hold the disc by the edges so the surface will not be

soiled with fi ngerprints.

• Fingerprints, dirt and scratches can cause skipping and distortion.

Do not write on the label side with a ball-point pen or other writing utensil.

Do not use record cleaning

sprays, benzine, thinner, static electricity prevention liquids, or any other solvent.

Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.

Do not install more than one disc on the disc tray.

Do not try to close the disc cover when the disc is not installed properly.

Be sure to store the disc in its original case when not in use.

If the surface is soiled

• Wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only) cloth.

• When wiping discs, always move the cloth from the center hole toward the outer edge. (If you wipe the disc using a circular motion, circular scratches are likely to occur, which will cause noise.)

If the disc is brought from a cold to a warm environment, moisture may form on the disc

Wipe moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.
