Other Information
Handling Discs
•
Don’t touch the disc’s signal surfaces. Hold by the edges or by one edge and the hole in the center.
•
Don’t affix labels or adhesive tape to label surfaces. Don’t scratch or damage the label.
•
Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
Cleaning Discs
•
Dirty discs can cause reduced video and audio performance. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently
with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
•
If a disc becomes very dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well. Wipe the dirt away gently, and
remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
•
Do not use record-cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Also, never clean the discs with benzene,
thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
