THE COMPACT DISC
1. Precautions on handling compact discs
• Do not allow fingerprints, oil or dust on the surface of the
compact disc. If the signal surface is dirty, wipe it off with a
soft, dry cloth. Wipe in circular motions from the center and out.
• Do not use water, benzene, thinner, record sprays, electrostatic
5
proof chemicals or silicone-treated cloth to clean discs.
• Always use care when handling discs to prevent damaging the
surface, in particular when removing a disc from the case and
returning it.
• Do not bend compact discs.
• Do not apply heat to compact discs.
• Do not enlarge the hole in the center of the disc.
• Do not write on the disc and do not attach any labels.
• Condensation will form on the disc surface if it is brought into a
warm room from a cold area, such as outdoors during winter.
Wait until the condensation disappears. Never dry discs with
hair dryers, etc.
2. Precautions on storage
• After playing a disc, always return it to its case.
• Keep discs in the cases when they are not to be played. This will
protect them from dust and dirt and prolong their service life.
• Do not store discs in the following places:
1) Places exposed to direct sunlight for a considerable time.
2) Places subject to accumulation of dust or high humidity.
3) Places exposed to high temperatures, such as close to
heater outlets.
