Handling MDs
The MD is enclosed in a cartridge to protect the disc from
debris or finger prints and make it easy to handle.
However, the presence of debris or a warped cartridge
may inhibit the disc from operating properly. To assure
that you can always listen to the highest quality music,
follow the precautions below.
Do not touch the internal disc directly
Forcing the shutter open may damage the MD.
