Note on handling a MiniDisc
Since MDs come in a cartridge which protects the
discs inside from fingerprints and dust, you do not
have to be overly careful when handling them.
However, soiled or damaged cartridges can lead
to malfunctions in the unit. Observe the following
tips when handling MDs.
Do not touch the disc inside the cartridge.
