Cleaning the disc
• Fingerprints and other contamination on
the disc surface can lead to reading
errors. Always keep the disc clean.
• To clean a disc, lightly wipe it from the
center outwards.
• To remove stubborn stains, lightly
moisten the cloth before wiping the
disc, and use a dry cloth afterwards.
• Do not use benzine, record cleaning
liquid, antistatic fluids, or other
substances that may damage the surface
of the disc.
• Never use cleaners on an unused disc.
Use specific CD cleaners to take off
dust.
• You may not be able to write data to a
disc if there are scratches or dust on the

damage the discs.
