Caring for CDs and DVDs
❖
Store your discs in their original containers to protect them
from scratches and keep them clean.
❖
Don’t bend a disc or place heavy objects on top of it.
❖
Don’t apply a label to, or otherwise mar the surface of a disc.
❖
Hold a disc by its outside edge. Fingerprints on the surface
can prevent the DVD-ROM drive from reading the data
properly.
❖
Don’t expose discs to direct sunlight or extreme heat or cold.
❖
To clean a disc that is dirty, wipe it with a clean, dry cloth. The
most efficient method to clean it is to start from the center of
the disc and wipe toward the outward edge (not in a circle). If
necessary, moisten the cloth with water or a neutral cleaner
(not benzine or rubbing alcohol). Let the disc dry completely
before inserting it in the drive.
