some instances they may be more sensi‐
tive to faulty CDs/DVDs than stationary de‐
vices would be.▷If a CD/DVD cannot be played, first check
whether it has been inserted correctly.
Humidity
High levels of humidity can lead to condensa‐
tion on the CD/DVD or the laser's scan lens,
and temporarily prevent playback.
Malfunctions involving individual CDs/
DVDs
If malfunctions occur only with particular CDs/
DVDs, this can be due to one of the following
causes:
Self-recorded CDs/DVDs

self-recorded CDs/DVDs are inconsistent
data creation or recording processes, or
poor quality or old age of the blank CD/
DVD.▷Only label CDs/DVDs on the upper side
with a pen intended for this purpose.
Damage
▷Avoid fingerprints, dust, scratches and
moisture.▷Store CDs/DVDs in a sleeve.▷Do not subject CDs/DVDs to temperatures
over 122 ℉/50 ℃, high humidity or direct
