Cleaning CD/DVD-ROM

A dusty CD/DVD-ROM or dust-accumulated tray causes the device to fail to read data correctly. Follow the procedure below to clean the tray and CD/DVD-ROM regularly:

1.Make sure that the equipment is powered (the POWER/SLEEP lamp is lit).

2.Press the Eject button on the front of the optical disk drive. The tray comes out.

3.Hold the CD/DVD-ROM lightly and take it out from the tray.

NOTE: Do not touch the signal side of the CD/DVD-ROM with your hand.

4.Wipe the tray with a dry soft cloth.

IMPORTANT: Do not wipe the lens of the optical disk drive. Doing so may damage the lens and may cause a malfunction of the drive.

5.Gently push on the tray front to close the tray.

6.Wipe the signal side of the CD/DVD-ROM with a dry soft cloth.

IMPORTANT: Wipe CD/DVD-ROMs from the center to the outside. Use only CD/DVD-ROM cleaner if necessary. Cleaning a CD/DVD- ROM with record spray/cleaner, benzene, or thinner causes damage to the CD/DVD-ROM contents. At worst, inserting the CD/DVD-ROM into the optical disk drive may cause failure of the equipment.
