Disc Handling
Handling Precautions
•
Hold the disc by the edges so the surface will not be soiled with fingerprints. (A)
Fingerprints, dirt and scratches can cause skipping and distortion.
•
Do not write on the label side with a ball-point pen or other writing
implements.
•
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 1 disc on the disc tray.
•
Do not try to close the disc tray when the disc is not installed properly.
•
Be sure to store the disc in its exclusive case when not in use.
If the surface is soiled (B)
•
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 discs 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
the moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.
