To move a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
-
If the disc becomes dirty, wipe the surface from the center hole outward towards the outer edge with a soft, dry cloth.
-
Never use such chemicals as record spray, antistatic sprays or fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic surface.
-
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid serious scratches that could cause the laser pick up to skip.
-
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures will warp the discs.
-
Printable CD-R and CD-RW discs are not recommended, as the label side might be sticky and damage the unit.
-
Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information on the label side. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this may cause damage to the recorded side.
