Observe the following precautions to enjoy the same
outstanding sonic performance from your Compact Discs for
many years.
•Hold compact discs by the edges so the surface is not soiled with
fingerprints.
•Be careful not to scratch the surface with fingernails or other
sharp objects, particularly when inserting and removing discs
from their cases.
•Do not bend the disc.
•Do not use record cleaning sprays or static electricity prevention
liquids.
•Do not wipe with benzine, thinner or any other solvent. If the
surface is soiled, wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only) cloth.
•When wiping discs, always move the cloth directly outward from
the center of the disc, not in a circular motion as with standard
phonograph records.
(In compact discs, circular scratches along a tine of pits are more
likely to cause errors than straight scratches across many lines of
pits.)
• If the disc is brought from a cold environment into a warm room,
moisture may form on the disc. Wipe this off with a soft, dry,
lint-free cloth before using the disc.
•Do not dry discs with a hair dryer.
•Do
not write on the label side with a ball-pCMnt pen, hard pencil or
other writing utensil.
•Handle compact discs with care. Fingerprints, dirt and scratches
can cause skipping and distortion.
Storage precautions
•Be sure to store discs in their cases to protect them from dust,
scratches and warping.
•Do not place or store discs in the following places;
1) Locations exposed to direct sunlight.
2) Humid or dusty locations.
3) Locations directly exposed to a heat outlet or heating
appliance.
4) In the glove compartment or rear ledge of an automobile.
