recorded data, and malfunction of the drive, when handling discs.
• Do not place discs in a hot or damp place or where they will be exposed to direct
sunlight.
• Do not touch the disc surface. Hold the disc by the edge when handling it.

disc surface may be scratched if strongly wiped with a dry cloth.
