Notes about handling compact discs
● Always handle the disc with care so that
its surface is not scratched.
● Compact discs are not subjected to wear during
playback, but damage to the disc surface when the disc
is being handled can adversely affect the disc playback.
● Be sure to use a felt-tip pen or similar writing tool when
writing on the label side of the disc. Do not use a ball-
point pen, pencil, or other hard-tipped writing tool, as
these may damage the disc and may adversely affect the
disc playback.
● Do not warp discs.
● When a disc is not currently being used, remove it from
the unit and store in an appropriate case.
● When removing or storing a disc, be careful not to
scratch the playing surface.
● Compact discs are not affected by small particles of dust
or fingerprints on their playing surface, but even so they
should be kept clean. Wipe by using a clean, dry cloth.
Do not wipe with a circular motion; wipe straight outward
from the center.
● Do not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any type of
disc cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or liquid, or
any other chemical-based liquid because such
substances might irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
● Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature
or high humidity for a long period of time because these
might warp or otherwise damage the disc.
