(condensation). This can effect the CD ju mp or impair the play function. In such
cases wait until the moisture has dissipated.
Notes for the care of the CDs
If a CD is soiled, please never clean the CD in the direction of a circle but rather from
inside to outside with a soft lint-free cloth. In case of severe layers of dir t we recom-
mend to clean the CD with a commercially available CD cleaner. Also in this case do
not clean the CD in the direction of a circ le but rather from inside to outside and
then let it dry off.
