Disc Handling Care
● Before using a disc, carefully read the operating/handling instructions and package of
the disc.
● If the discs are not handled appropriately, they may become dirty or scratched.
Furthermore the writing speed may get slower and the data may not be correctly written
on or read from the disc. Other damage may cause a drive failure.
● Note the following precautions.
• Do not touch the disc surface (the side with no printing).
• Keep the disc surface clean and free from dirt, dust, fingerprints and scratches.
• Do not write on the surface of the disc with a ballpoint pen or other writing instrument.
• Do not attach stickers to discs.
• Do not drop, bend, or place heavy objects on top of discs.
• Do not place or store discs in locations exposed to heat, direct sunlight, humidity or dust.
• If a disc is brought from a cold to a warm location, condensation may form on the disc.
For read-only discs, wipe off the condensation using a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before
using the disc. For recordable/rewritable discs, wait until the condensation dries.
• When not using discs, keep them in their protective cases or cartridges.
To clean discs
<For read-only discs>
Wipe discs with a dry, soft cloth from
the center toward the edge.
If discs get very dirty, wipe with a
moist, soft cloth from the center toward the edge, then wipe again with a dry cloth to
take up remaining moisture.
<For recordable/rewritable discs>
Use the recordable/rewritable disc cleaner to clean these discs.
Do not use a cloth, CD cleaners or any other such cleaners under any circumstances.
