Installation manual

The NUMBER ONE cause of premature disc failure with recordable CDs is contamination

of the recording surface before recording is completed. To minimize disc failure, use

the following disc-handling guidelines.

• Keep the media in its sealed package until you are

ready to record.

• Keep the disc as clean and dust-free as possible.

DO NOT touch the recording surface, and do not

expose the disc to dust or dirt.

• DO NOT BLOW ON THE DISC to remove dust or

dirt. To remove dust from the recording surface use

a camera lens cleaner, a lint free cloth or use

compressed air. Wipe the disc from the center to

the outer edge. NEVER wipe the disc in a circular

motion.

• Always record in a dust-free environment. If the disc

is to be removed from the CD-RW drive, store the

disc in a clean, dust-free environment.

• Never bend or flex the disc. This may warp the disc

and leave it unusable.

• Never scratch off the reflective top surface of a

CD-R or CD-RW disc. Without the reflective surface

the disc is completely unusable.

• If you must write on the CD-R disc surfaced, read

the back of the CD-R jewel case for instructions.
