Media Care
This section provides tips on protecting data stored on your discs and
disks.
Handle your media with care. The following simple precautions will
increase the lifetime of your media and protect the data stored on it:
1. Store your discs in the container they came in to protect them and keep
them clean.
2. Do not bend the disc.
3. Do not write on, apply a sticker to, or otherwise mar the surface of the
disc that contains data.
4. Hold the disc by its outside edge or the edge on the center hole.
Fingerprints on the surface can prevent the drive from properly reading
data.
5. Do not expose to direct sunlight, or extreme heat or cold, and do not
place heavy objects on your discs.
6. If your discs become dusty or dirty, wipe them with a clean dry cloth.
Wipe from the center out, do not wipe in a circular direction around the
disc. If necessary, use a cloth dampened in water or a neutral cleaner.
Do not use benzine, thinner or similar cleaner.
