Disc Handling
Inserting Discs
Notes
 When using 8 cm DVD-RAM or 8 cm DVD-R, remove the disc 
from the cartridge.
 It is not possible to record or play continuously from one side of a 
double sided disc to the other. You will need to eject the disc and 
turn it over.
Holding a disc
Handle discs by the edges to avoid inadvertently scratching or 
getting oil from your fi ngers on the disc. Do not touch the signal 
surface of discs (the shiny side).
Cleaning discs
Discs are not indestructible and occasionally dirt or condensation 
may appear. Clean by gently wiping with a soft, dry lint-free cloth 
in a straight line from the centre of the disc to the edge of the disc.
Return discs to their cases when not in use; this helps to protect 
against scratches and dirt.
Storing discs
 Do not place or store discs in the following locations:
– Direct sunlight
–  Very dusty or humid areas
–  Near a heat source
–  Places that undergo extreme shifts in temperature 
(condensation can occur)
–  Where static electricity or electromagnetic waves occur
Discs to avoid
 Discs that are not perfectly circular in shape
 Warped discs, which may not balance properly in your unit, 
causing improper operation or damage to the unit
 Cracked discs
 Discs with exposed adhesive (from removed stickers or labels, 
such as may occur with rental discs or improperly cared-for discs 
that were previously labeled or re-labeled)
