Caring for CDs, DVDs, or Multifunction Discs

Store your discs in their original containers to protect them
from scratches and keep them clean.

Do not bend a disc or place heavy objects on top of it.

Do not apply a label to, or otherwise mar the surface of a disc.

Hold a disc by its outside edge. Fingerprints on the surface
can prevent the DVD-ROM drive or Multifunction drive from
reading the data properly.
