Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on reproduction quality. Clean the disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never use detergents or abrasive cleaners to clean the disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit. Never write on or stick any labels to the surface of compact discs. Care of the cabinet If the cabinet becomes dusty, wipe it with a soft dry dust cloth.
