Handling Precautions

Drive handling care
Do not expose the drive to excessive smoke that may leave a residue, e.g., oil smoke, or tobacco smoke. Doing so can
shorten the life of the drive lens.
We recommend cleaning the drive lens with an air puffer used for camera lenses.
(Do not use any spray-type of lens cleaning products.)
When opening/closing the disk cover
When the computer is on, use the drive power/open switch (
Windows.( page 45: "B's CLiP")
When closing the disk cover, press down near the drive power/open switch (position of the
arrow) to ensure that the cover is locked.
Do not access the drive until after the disk cover is closed and the CD/DVD drive indicator
changes to lighting from blinking.
When inserting or removing a disk, be careful not to touch the lens of the drive.
Do not leave the disk cover open and do not touch the lens.
The lens and disk can become dusty in some conditions. It may cause malfunction in
reading or writing.
The disk cover can be opened up to an angle of 75 degrees. Do not apply excessive force
to the disk cover. If you accidentally touch the disk cover causing the disk cover to open 75
degrees or more, press the cover forward slowly until the stopper returns to its original
position.
Be sure to close the display only after confirming the disk cover is closed. If the disk cover
is not closed, the LCD may become damaged.
Never insert a foreign object such as a paper clip into the drive.
Doing so may cause malfunction.
Insert the disk securely.
If the disk cover is closed without securely inserting the disk, the disk may be damaged.
