Handling and Storing Compact Discs

• Handle discs only by their edges; avoid touching disc surfaces.

• Do not write on discs with permanent marking pens.

• Do not use compact discs in high-dust environments.

• Keep discs out of direct sunlight, extreme sources of heat or cold, and away from dust and moisture.

• Make sure discs are at room temperature before using them.

• Store discs in storage boxes so that they remain clean and free of dust.
