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 affix labels to the surface of compact discs. Care of the cabinet If the cabinet becomes dusty wipe it with a soft dry dust cloth.
