Wipe the disc from the center out. For dirt,
clean the disc with a soft cloth slightly
moistened with water. Then remove the
moisture with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not use solvents such as benzine, cleaners
intended for vinyl LPs or antistatic spray, as
they may cause a malfunction to the disc.
You can write only on the label surface of a

marker and do not touch the ink until dry.
