Cleaning a CD
If your drive cannot read a compact disc (CD), the CD could be dusty or dirty.
Clean the CD with a soft, clean, lint-free, dry cloth and:
•
Clean only the non-labeled side of the CD.
•
Wipe the CD radially from the center to the outside of the CD.
Caution – Do not use solvents (like benzine, paint thinner, phonograph record
cleaner, or antistatic aerosol spray) or abrasive cleaners to clean CDs.
Handling and Storing CDs
•
Handle CDs only by their edges; avoid touching CD surfaces.
•
Do not write on CDs with permanent marking pens.
•
Do not use CDs in high-dust environments.
•
Keep CDs out of direct sunlight, extreme sources of heat or cold, and away
from dust and moisture.
•
Make sure CDs are at room temperature before using them.
•
Store CDs in storage boxes so that they remain clean and free of dust.
