Care and Handling
Like any media, you should be careful when handling CD media. Avoid touching the bottom of
the media, as well as leaving the CD in direct sunlight. Care should also be taken to keep the
media clean. Use only water and a soft towel when cleaning the media. Do not use any type of
solvent or harsh cleanser.
If you find the CD-ROM drive is having trouble reading a particular disc, you may want to try
cleaning it. Use a slightly damp cloth rad, and make gentle sweeping motions from the center of
the disc to the outer edge.
Do not place anything other than a Compact Disc on the CD-ROM drive tray. The drawer is
designed to hold only the weight of a CD-ROM disc.
