Can I use a CD lens cleaner in the DVD recorder?
Since the optical unit (laser) of the DVD recorder operates at a higher
power level than the ones in normal DVD and CD players, such CD lens
cleaner discs may actually damage the optical unit (laser).
Therefore, refrain from using a CD lens cleaner disc!
