edges or by one edge and the hole in the center.
• Do not affix labels or adhesive tape to label surfaces.
Don’t scratch or damage the label.
• Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
CLEANING DISCS
• Dirty discs can cause reduced video and audio
performance. Always keep discs clean by wiping them
gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the
outer perimeter.

and wring it out well. Wipe the dirt away gently, and
remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
• Do not use record-cleaning sprays or anti-static agents
on discs. Also, never clean the discs with benzene,
thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause
damage to the disc surface.
