Getting Started

Directions for disc cleaning

1. SPRAY Clean Dr® Disc Cleaning Solution lightly onto play-side of disc (do not spray on the label-side).

2. SHINE disc with microfiber cleaning cloth, removing all moisture. Use gentle pressure for heavy dirt. Repeat as necessary

Cloth Care: To avoid built up dirt and grime, machine wash regularly in warm water. Hang to dry and shake fibers loose before next use. Always store completely dried.

Directions for disc repair

1. Prepare your Skip Dr® Disc Repair System for use by opening battery door on bottom of unit and inserting 6 AA batteries following directional prompts for “+” and “-” engraved on housing. An optional AC power
   
   adapter is available online at www.digitalinnovations.com. When using AC adapter, plug AC power adapter transformer into electrical outlet, then plug jack into back side of repair unit base.

2. Generously spray entireplay-side of damaged disc (the opposite side of disc label) using provided SkipDr® Rejuvenating Fluid.
   

3. To begin repair process, swing disc holder open by gently pulling top of holder away from the repair unit until it clicks into open position.
   

4. Gently insert disc into disc holder with play-side of disc touching the Flexi Wheel™, until disc is seated. (Disc will not touch the bottom of disc holder.)
   

5. Press power button to start repair process. Allow disc to spin in repair device for approximately 1 minute, or 2 complete revolutions. Press power button to stop process.
   

6. Once repair process is complete and unit is powered off, pull disc out of disc holder. Remove any remaining moisture with drying cloth.
   

7. IMPORTANT! Place disc (play-side up) on top of blue drying cloth. Firmly and thoroughly buff the dry, resurfaced disc with the white felt buffing square. Buffing helps to restore the disc’s shiny appearance, and ensures optimal disc performance. Scratches do not have to be removed completely for the disc to play perfectly, and scratches may still be visible.
   A slight radial pattern left on the disc is normal after repairing process is complete. (Image of disc before and after)

8. When not in use, the drying cloth, felt buffing square, and rejuvenating fluid can be stored conveniently inside the back of the repair unit.
   

Note: Skip Dr® Disc Repair System repairs surface scratches on discs. No system can repair gouges and deep scratches reaching down to a disc’s reflective layer, label-side damage, or warping.

Directions for replacing the FlexiWheel™:

The Flexi Wheel™ will repair up to 25 discs. Once it has worn, the Flexi Wheel™ can easily be replaced

1. If a disc is in the unit, remove it first before replacing Flexi Wheel™ so as not to damage disc.
2. Gently pull worn Flexi Wheel™ from repair device by pulling wheel away from the wheel hub with fingers. Lift out of repair device once wheel is detached from hub.
3. Insert new Flexi Wheel™ into repair device, ensuring that side with protruding center faces INWARD toward device (wheel cap will face outward).

Tips
Digital Innovations’ SkipDr® Disc Repair Systems are trusted by over 8 million loyal customers, and are recognized as the smartest solution to repairing scratched discs. We have put together the following helpful hints and tips to ensure the optimal results to your disc repair. If after following and reviewing this information, you have additional questions or are not completely satisfied, please call us at 1-888-SMART-58.

• It is very important to keep discs wet during the resurfacing process, or discs may become damaged.

• The final buffing step will help prevent new problems and ensures best repair results. You can buff as hard as you want, as it will not harm the disc. A slight radial pattern left on the disc is normal after the repairing process is complete.

• Be sure to wipe and buff your disc in a radial pattern (from the inside center to the outside rim of the disc in a straight line), do not wipe or buff in a circular or circumferential pattern. Store buffing square as recommended to keep it clean and free from debris which could cause scratches. Replacement buffing squares are available from your local retailer or directly from Digital Innovations at wwww.digitalinnovations.com

• If the disc is not completely repaired on the first try, repeat until completely fixed or no further improvement is evident. If the disc still skips, your disc player may need cleaning or repair. Test with a disc that you know is not damaged.

• The same disc can be repaired multiple times without worry of reaching the data layer of the disc.

• Circumferential scratches (curved scratches that lie in a direction around the disc) are more likely to cause problems than radial scratches (that run from inside center to outside rim of disc).

• A disc’s play-side is usually the “shiny” side and the label-side is the “dull” side or “graphics” side.

• Discs with label-side damage cannot be repaired by any method. Scratches visible on the label-side of a disc are always due to label-side damage, but the reverse is not always true. Label-side damage can look like play-side damage when viewed straight-on from the play-side. Here’s how to check for label-side damage:
  Method #1- Hold the disc a foot or so from a light source with the play- side facing you. If you can see through a scratch, that scratch is definitely on the label-side. If you can’t see through the scratch, it is probably on the play-side. Use
  Method #2 to be sure. Method #2- Tilt disc so you are looking at the scratch from an angle If the scratch has a reflection in the surface of the disc then the scratch is on the play-side. If not, the scratch is on the label-side.

• Store the SkipDr® Disc Repair System in a dust-free environment at room temperature. If it is stored in a warmer or cooler temperature, allow it to return to room temperature before using.

• If the unit starts to run slowly when using batteries, replace the batteries and start repair process from the beginning. If attempting to repair 30 or more discs consecutively, it is recommended to use the AC power adapter available for the SkipDr® Disc Repair System
