HANDLING COMPACT DISCS
Dirt, dust, scratches and warpage cause sound skips during playback and a deterioration of sound quality. To take proper care of your
discs:
1. Use compact discs that have the mark
2. Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc's signal surface (glossy side) with a soft cloth. Unlike conventional
records, the compact disc has no grooves to collect dust and microscopic debris, so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove
most particles. Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles or light stains will have
absolutely no effect on reproduction quality.
3. Neverusechemicalssuchasrecordsprays,antistaticspraysorfluids,benzineorthinnertocleancompactdiscs. Suchchemicals
could irreparably damage the disc's plastic surface.
4. Discs should be put back in their cases after use to avoid serious scratches that could cause the sound to skip.
5. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for extended periods of time. Long exposure to high
temperatures can warp the disc.
6. Do not stick paper, labels, or tape on the disc surface.
7. Do not write with any type of pen, pencil, or marker on the disc surface.
8. To minimize fingerprints and smudges on the signal surface, always try to hold the discs by their outer edge and center hole.
