Cleaning Discs
• Dirty discs can cause reduced video and audio performance. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft
cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
• If a disc becomes very dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well. Wipe the dirt away gently, and remove any
water drops with a dry cloth.
• Do not use record-cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Also, never clean the discs with benzene, thinner, or
other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
