• Hold discs by their edges to avoid getting fingerprints or scratches on the
data surface.
• When cleaning discs, use a soft, dust-free cloth and wipe the disc in a
straight line from the center to the edge. Do not wipe in a circular motion.
• Clean your optical drive periodically. Cleaning kits can be purchased from
any computer or electronics shop.
