Cautions on Handling Discs
• Do not get fingerprints, grease or dirt on discs.
• Be especially careful not to scratch discs when removing
them from their cases.
• Do not bend discs.
• Do not heat discs.
• Do not enlarge the center hole.
• Do not write on the labeled (printed) side with a ball-point
pen or a pencil.
• Water droplets may form on the surface if the disc is moved
suddenly from a cold place to a warm one. Do not use a
hairdryer, etc., to dry the disc.
Cautions on Storing Discs
• Always eject discs after playing them.

scratches and warping.

1. Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time

adapter. If the disc is not properly loaded, it may slip out of
the guide and block the disc tray.
• Be careful not to let your fingers get caught when the disc
tray is closing.
• Do not place anything but discs in the disc tray.
• Do not load cracked or warped discs or discs that have been
fixed with adhesive, etc.
• Do not use discs on which the adhesive part of cellophane
tape or glue used to attach the label is exposed, or discs
