Handling discs
o
Load discs with their labeled sides up.
(CDs only have one playable side.)
o
To remove a disc from its case, always press down on the center of
the case first and then hold the disc by its edges.
Removal from case Holding by edges
o
Be careful when handling discs. If the side that contains the data
(unlabeled side) is scratched, smudged with fingerprints or other-
wise dirty or marred, errors could occur during playback.
o
If the side of the disc that has the data encoded on it (unlabeled
side) becomes dirty with fingerprints or dust, use a soft cloth to
wipe the surface from the center directly toward the edge.
Always clean discs before storing them. Leaving a disc in an
unclean state might degrade its sound quality.
o
Never use record cleaners, antistatic treatments, thinners or similar
chemicals to clean discs. Such chemicals could harm the surface
of the disc.
o
Do not leave discs in places that are exposed to direct sunlight or
that are very humid or hot.
o
When writing something on the label side of a disc, use a felt-tip
permanent marker. The use of a ballpoint pen or other pen with a
hard tip could damage the disc, making it unplayable.
o
After you finish playing a disc, always put it back into its case for
storage. Failure to do so could result in warping or scratches.
o
Do not apply labels or other materials to discs. Do not use a disc
that has sticky residue left on its surface after removing tape or a
sticker, for example. If such a disc is loaded, it might become stuck
in the unit or damage the unit.
