Handling & Cleaning of CD and DVD Discs
Handling
• Always hold discs from the edges and the hole in
the center.
• Store discs in a clean, dry environment. Storing
discs vertically will also help prevent warping.
• Use sleeves and jackets to prevent wear and tear.
• NEVER write on both sides of the disc. It may
make the disc unreadable.
• DO NOT stack the discs on top of each other.
This may lead to warping.
• DO NOT bend or apply pressure to the disc.
• DO NOT expose the disc to direct sunlight or
heat.
Cleaning
• Use a soft cloth to clean the disc.
• Always wipe from the center to the edges.
• DO NOT use circular motions.
• DO NOT use household cleaning products on
the disc, unless they are specifically formulated for
cleaning DVDs or CDs.
Reminder: Never attempt to play cracked or warped
discs in your player. The high rotational speeds that
the discs reach may cause flawed CDs or DVDs to
shatter in the player, causing it to malfunction.
