Caring for compact discs

Store your discs in their original containers to protect them
from scratches and keep them clean.
Never bend a disc or place heavy objects on top of it.
Never apply a label to, or otherwise mar, the surface of a disc.
Hold a disc by its outside edge. Fingerprints on the surface of
a disc can prevent the CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive
from reading the data properly.
Avoid exposing discs to direct sunlight or extreme heat or
cold.
To clean a disc, wipe it with a clean, dry cloth — starting from
the center of the disc and wiping toward the outward edge.
Avoid wiping using a circular motion. If necessary, moisten
the cloth with water or a neutral cleaner (not benzine or
rubbing alcohol). Let the disc dry completely before inserting
it in the drive.
Setting up for communications
To connect to the Internet, use an online service, or communicate
across the telephone lines with another computer, you need:
A modem (supplied with your notebook computer)
A telephone line
A browser or communications program
An Internet Service Provider (ISP) or online service if you
plan to use the Internet
