Precautions
On Handling Discs
❑
Do not touch the surface of the disc.
❑
Do not drop or bend the disc.
❑
Fingerprints and dust on the surface of a disc may cause read errors. Always hold the disc by its edges and central hole,
as shown below:
❑
Proper care of the disc is essential to its continuous reliability. Do not use solvents (such as benzine, thinner, alcohol,
commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray) which may cause damage to the disc.
❑
For normal cleaning, hold the disc by its edge and use a soft cloth to wipe the surface from the center out.
❑
If the disc is badly soiled, moisten a soft cloth with water, wring it out well, and use it to wipe the surface of the disc from
the center out. Wipe off any remaining moisture with a dry soft cloth.
❑
Never affix an adhesive label on discs. This will affect the use of the disc irreparably.
