Handling and Cleaning CD and DVD Media
Proper care of the disc is essential to maintain its reliability. Therefore, always
abide by the following guidelines:
Handling
❑ Do not drop or bend the disc.
❑ Do not touch the surface of the disc. Fingerprints and dust on the surface of a
disc may cause read errors.
Cleaning
❑ For normal cleaning, hold the disc by its edge and use a soft cloth to wipe the
surface from the center out.
❑ If the disc is badly soiled, moisten a soft cloth with water, wring it out well,
and use it to wipe the surface of the disc from the center out. Wipe off any
remaining moisture with a dry soft cloth.
❑ Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available
cleaners or anti-static spray, as they may cause damage to the disc.
Writing Data to CD-R/RW Media
You can use Drag’n Drop CD software to write data to a CD-R or CD-RW. To use
Drag’n Drop CD, see the online help manual that comes with the software.
✍
Note the following when using CD-R/RW drives:
❑ For optimal writing speed, deactivate the screen saver and exit anti-virus
software before writing data to a disc.
❑ For best results, use CD-Rs that are compatible with 4x speed.
❑ Do not put your notebook into power saving mode while using Drag’n Drop CD.
