Cleaning a Disc

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe Discs.

Wipe Discs in a straight line from the center to the edge. Never wipe Discs in a circular motion.

Do not use detergent or abrasive cleaning agents.

Handle Discs by the edges so finger- prints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the Discs.

Always store a Disc in its protective case when it is not in use.
