Although the music tracks on the disc are covered with a protective layer, it
is still advisable to treat the disc carefully. As long as you always pick up
discs by the edge, and put them back in their holders immediately after use,
cleaning will not normally be necessary. However, should fingerprints, dust
or dirt appear, you can wipe them off with a soft, lint-free cloth. Wipe the disc
in a straight line from centre to edge. If the disc is heavily soiled use a
commercially available CD cleaner. Detergent or abrasive cleaning agents
