Dirt, dust, scratches and warpage cause sound skips during playback and a deterioration
of sound quality. To take proper care of your discs:
1. Use compact discs that have the mark shown on the right.
2. Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc's signal surface (glossy side)
with a soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, the compact disc has no grooves to collect
dust and microscopic debris, so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most
particles. Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust
particles or light stains will have absolutely no effect on reproduction quality.
3. Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or fluids, benzine or thinner
to clean compact discs. Such chemicals could irreparably damage the disc's plastic
surface.
4. Discs should be put back in their cases after use to avoid serious scratches that could
cause the sound to skip.
5. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for extended
periods of time. Long exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.
6. Do not stick paper, labels, or tape on the disc surface.
7. Do not write with any type of pen, pencil, or marker on the disc surface.
8. To minimize fingerprints and smudges on the signal surface, always try to hold the discs
by their outer edge and center hole.
