COMPACT DISC OPERATION

HANDLING A DISC

Although built to withstand a the effects of dust, dirt and scratches, discs should be
treated with care and according to rules applicable to conventional analog discs.
Always protect a disc against scratches, dirt and dust etc. It is recommended that
during non-use periods the discs should be retained in the original case. If a disc is
treated with reasonable care, the only maintenance needed to retain the excellent
sound reproduction is to wipe it with a cloth as indicated below.

To handle a disc use only one of the two methods illustrated (Do not touch the
rainbow - coloured side).
To wipe a disc, use only a soft cloth. Do not use alcohol based liquids or
thinner which will damage the disc. The disc should always be wiped in a
straight line from the centre to the edge. It should never be wiped in a circular
motion.
Never place the disc on other equipment or near any heat source. Avoid
positions where the disc would be subjected to direct sunlight for long periods.
