Maintaining Your Lifestyle® 12 System Taking care of your Lifestyle® 12 system The only maintenance needed is cleaning the system and your compact discs, and replacing remote control batteries. For information on replacing the remote control batteries see "Installing the batteries in the remote control" on page 17. Figure 23 Handling a CD Handling CDs Handle discs by their edges to prevent fingerprints and scratches (Figure 23). To remove stains or fingerprints from the surface of a disc, use a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Wipe in straight movements from the center of the disc to the outside (Figure 24). Do not use any chemical products; they can damage the disc. Do not write on or attach labels to the surface of the disc. To minimize exposure to dust and dirt, replace discs in their cases after use. Store each disc in its case, out of direct sunlight, high temperatures, and humidity.
