surface of a disc is damaged, the

a disc while handling it; this could
damage the surface. Pick up discs
by grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.If the bottom surface of a disc is
dirty, take a soft lint‐free cloth,
or dampen a clean soft cloth in a
mild neutral detergent solution
mixed with water, and clean it.

the outer edge.
Care of the CD Player
Do not add a label to a disc, as it
could get caught in the CD player.

lens of the disc optics and damage
the CD player.
