- Always place the compact disc in
the disc tray with the labelled side
up (compact discs can be played
only on one side).
- To remove a disc from its storage
case, press down on the center of
the case and lift the disc out of the
case, holding it carefully with the
edges.
- Fingermarks and dust should be
carefully wiped off the discs
recorded surface with a soft cloth.
Unlike conventional records, the
compact disc has no grooves to
collect dust and microscopic debris.
Gentle wiping with a soft cloth will
remove most particles completely.
Wipe straight from the inside to the
outside of the disc. Small dust
particles and light stains will have
absolutely no effect on sound
reproduction quality.
- Never use such chemicals as
record sprays, antistatic sprays or
fluid, benzine or thinner to clean
compact discs. Such chemicals
could damage the discs plastic
surface irreparably.
- Discs should be stored in their
cases after use to avoid serious
scratches that could cause the laser
pickup to skip.
- Dont expose the discs to direct
sunlight or high humidity or
temperature for extended periods.
Long exposure to high temperatures
can warp the disc.
- Dont stick paper or write anything
with a ball-point pen on the surface
of the labelled side.
