wiping from center to edge.
3. Do not apply paper or tape to the disc; avoid scratch-
ing the disc.

or antistatic sprays.5. Store the disc in its case after playing.

or eliminated by relocating the cellular phone antenna.
This condition is not harmful to the radio. If your radio
performance does not satisfactorily “clear” by the repo-
sitioning of the antenna, it is recommended that the radio
volume be turned down or off during cellular phone
