Taking care of your CDs and DVDs
•
Keep your disk in its case when not in use to avoid scratches or other
damage. Any kind of dirt or damage can affect the data on the disk, impair
the disk lens reader on the CD or DVD drive, or stop the computer from
successfully reading the disk.
•
When handling disks, always hold them by the edges to avoid smudges
or fingerprints.
•
When cleaning disks, use a clean, dust-free cloth and wipe in a straight line
from the center to the edge. Do not wipe in a circular motion.
•
Clean your CD or DVD drive periodically. You may refer to the Cleaning Kit
for instructions. Cleaning kits can be purchased in any computer or
electronics shop.
