•
Do not use cracked or badly warped discs.
Damage could result.
•
Do not touch the recording area (the rainbow colored) side of a disc.
Otherwise, the disc may become dirty and playback may jump.
•
If you play a dirty disc, the disc surface may be scratched and the playback
may jump.
Use a commercially available compact disc cleaner to clean the CD, wiping
gently from the center to the edge.
■
Brand new CDs
•
You may notice that some brand new discs have "rough edges" around the
center hole or outside. In such cases, remove the "rough edges" or flakes
around the edge using the side of a ballpoint pen before using the new disc.
Not doing so may result in the "rough edges" or flakes attaching to the
recording side, preventing playback.
