Cleaning the lens

Handling discs

Storing

Always place discs in their cases and store them vertically, avoiding hot, humid places, places exposed to direct sunlight and extremely cold places.

Be sure to read the cautions included with the disc.

Do not use benzene, thinner or other volatile chemicals. Also do not use record spray or antistatic agents.

For tough dirt, apply some water to a soft cloth, wring out thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe off the moisture with a dry cloth.

Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.

Do not let the signal surface of discs get scratched or dirty.

Do not place two discs in the disc tray, one on top of the other.

Do not attach pieces of paper or stick‑ ers to discs. Doing so could warp discs, making it impossible to play them.
