Wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only) cloth.
When wiping discs, always move the cloth from
the centre hole toward the outer edge.
(If you wipe the discs using a circular motion,
circular scratches are likely to occur, which will
cause noise.)
If the playing surface of a disc is soiled or
scratched, the Player may display indicator

correctly. Wipe any soiling off the playing
surface with a soft cloth.
If the Disc is Brought from a Cold to a Warm Environment,
Dew may form on the Disc
Wipe this dew off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.
