OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

Handling
When operating the DVD-RAM/R drive
•
Do not touch the DVD-RAM/R drive or its cable connector area. (Doing so may cause it to malfunction.)
•
Do not move the computer in which the DVD-RAM/R drive is installed while it is running. (Doing so may damage
the DVD-RAM/R drive.)
•
Do not leave the tray out. (Doing so will allow dust to get inside the DVD-RAM/R drive and may damage it.)
•
Only load designated discs in the tray. (Loading other types of discs or media may damage the drive.)
•
Do not press on the shutter while opening or closing the tray (doing so may damage the DVD-RAM/R drive).
•
Do not force the shutter open (doing so may damage the DVD-RAM/R drive).
•
Do not bring magnets or magnetic objects near the DVD-RAM/R drive. (Operation may become unstable due to
the effects of the magnetism.)
•
Do not use the DVD-RAM/R drive when condensation has formed in or on it.
[When the DVD-RAM/R drive is suddenly taken from a cold place to a warm location, condensation will form,
causing the DVD-RAM/R drive to malfunction. In such cases, remove the disc and leave the DVD-RAM/R drive
for about an hour before operation.]
•
Do not expose the DVD-RAM/R drive to the sprays from volatile insecticides, etc. (Doing so may deform the
external cabinet or cause the paint to peel off.)
•
If the DVD-RAM/R drive is used near a radio or TV set and it causes interference with reception, place it at least
6´6˝ (2 meters) away from the set or use a mains outlet which does not share power with the set.
When moving or transporting the DVD-RAM/R drive
•
If the computer is to be moved, remove the cartridge or disc, close the tray and then turn the power off.
•
To ship the DVD-RAM/R drive (e.g., if you are moving), remove it from the computer and put it in the packing
material you received when you purchased it.
•
Do not drop the DVD-RAM/R drive or bump it into objects when moving or transporting it.
Maintenance
Maintaining the DVD-RAM/R drive's panel surfaces
•
Turn off the computer.
•
Gently wipe off the dirt using a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
•
To remove stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in some diluted kitchen neutral detergent, wring it out well, and then wipe
clean.
•
Observe any applicable precautions when using chemical cleaning cloths.
•
Do not use benzine, paint thinners or other solvents.
Maintaining the lens and discs
•
Dirt, dust, etc. will adhere to the DVD-RAM/R drive's lens and discs after prolonged use, possibly making it
impossible for data to be read and written correctly.
Although the exact period depends on the operating environment and frequency of use, we recommend that you
clean the lens and discs once every one to four months with the optional cleaning kits.

•
There is a utility on the included CD-ROM that allows you to check how dusty the discs are.
This utility should only be used as a guide to how dusty the discs are and should not be considered a guaran-
tee for the quality of the data on the disc.
Maintaining the disc tray
•
If you intend to regularly use non-cartridge discs and discs which have been removed out of Type 2 or Type 4
cartridges, you should clean the tray whenever you clean the discs.
•
Use a soft dry cloth to clean the tray.
•
Before using chemically treated cloth, carefully read the cloth's instructions.
