Handling Precautions
• Hold the disc by the edges
so the surface will not be
soiled with fingerprints.
• Fingerprints, dirt and
scratches can cause
skipping and distortion.
• Do not write on the label
side with a ball-point pen or
other writing utensil.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzine,
thinner, static electricity prevention liquids, or
any other solvent.
• Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.
• Do not install more than one disc on the disc
tray.
• Do not try to close the disc cover when the disc
is not installed properly.
• Be sure to store the disc in
its original case when not in
use.
If the surface is soiled
• Wipe gently with a soft,
damp (water only) cloth.
• When wiping discs, always
move the cloth from the
center hole toward the outer
edge. (If you wipe the disc
using a circular motion,
circular scratches are likely
to occur, which will cause
noise.)
If the disc is brought from a cold to a
warm environment, moisture may form on
the disc
• Wipe moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth
before using the disc.
