Protecting Compact Discs
Handle a CD by its edges; never
touch either surface.
Contamination from fingerprints,
liquids, felt-tip pens, and labels
can cause the CD to not play
properly, or possibly jam in the
drive.
When a CD is not being played,
store it in its case to protect it
from dust and other
contamination. To prevent
warpage, keep CDs out of direct
sunlight and extreme heat.
To clean a disc, use a clean soft
cloth. Wipe across the disc from
the center to the outside edge.
Audio System
A new CD may be rough on the
inner and outer edges. The small
plastic pieces causing this
roughness can flake off and fall
on the recording surface of the
disc, causing skipping or other
problems. Remove these pieces
by rubbing the inner and outer
edges with the side of a pencil or
pen.
Never try to insert foreign
objects in the CD player or the
magazine.
