Operation and storage conditions
Avoid using or storing the DVDirect in hot or
humid locations, or places where it might be
subject to severe vibration or direct sunlight.
Cleaning
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the external surfaces
of the DVDirect. Do not use an abrasive,
disposable cloth such as paper towels, as they
may damage the surface finishes.
Transportation
Please repack the DVDirect in its original carton
when shipping by itself.
If the DVDirect is to be shipped, remove any disc
beforehand.
Moisture condensation
Do not expose the DVDirect to sudden
temperature changes. Do not use the DVDirect
immediately after moving it from a cold to warm
location or raising the room temperature
suddenly, as condensation may have formed
within the DVDirect. If the temperature changes
suddenly while using the DVDirect, keep the
power on, but stop using it for at least an hour.
Handling discs

the recording surface.
• Do not affix labels on discs.

in direct sunlight, or near heat generating
devices.
• To protect important data, always keep discs in
their cases.
• Clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the
disc from the center out.
