Handle a disc by its edges. Do not touch the playing side.

Before inserting a disc, wipe the disc outward from the disc center with a clean, soft, dry and lint-free cloth. Do not use solvents or thinners such a petrol/benzene or cleaners.

After removing a disc from the disc slot, place the disc in a sleeve or case to keep it clean and prevent scratches.

Do not stick paper or tape on the disc surface. If there is glue (or adhesive) on the disc surface, remove it before using the disc.
