Care and handling
Maintenance of discs
How to handle CDs
When there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe the
disc with a soft, dry cloth with a movement going from the center
outwards.
If difficult to clean, wipe the disc with a cloth moistened with water.
Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.
When handling compact discs, do not touch the surface of the disc (re-
flective silver side — the side without the label).
Since compact discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If
the disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the sound will not be
picked up correctly and, in addition, such discs may cause the CD
player to malfunction.
Even on label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on
the surface.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled one on
top of another without their protective cases, they can be damaged.
Do not put discs in any location where they can be exposed to direct
sunlight, or in any place where humidity or temperature is high. Avoid
leaving discs in your car!
