making data discs).

prevent static electricity, or any other solvent.

DVD-R/RW

≥ This unit does not support multi-session. Only the default session is
played.
CD-R/RW
≥ Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended
formats).
≥ This unit supports multi-session but if there are many sessions it takes
more time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a minimum
to avoid this.
≥ Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to clean this unit.
≥ Before using chemically treated cloth, carefully read the instructions that
came with the cloth.

malfunction. Cleaning of the lens is generally not necessary although
this depends on the operating environment.
