Operating Basics

Floppy disks

1. Store your floppy disks in the container they came in to protect them
and keep them clean. If a floppy disk is dirty, do not use cleaning fluid.
Clean it with a soft damp cloth.
2. Never open the shutter or touch the magnetic surface of your floppy
disk. You could permanently damage it and lose data.
3. Always handle floppy disks with care, to prevent the loss of stored data.
Always apply the floppy disk label in the correct location. Never apply a
new label on top of an existing one. The label could come loose and
damage the floppy drive.
4. Never use a pencil for writing on a floppy disk label. Pencil lead dust
could cause a system malfunction. Always use a felt-tipped pen. When
writing a title on a label, first write on the label, then apply the label to
the floppy disk.
5. Never put a floppy disk in a location where water or other liquid may
contact it or where it is excessively damp. It could cause data loss.
Never use a wet or damp floppy disk. It could damage the floppy disk
drive or other devices.
6. Data may be lost if the floppy disk is twisted; bent; or exposed to direct
sunlight, extreme heat or cold.
7. Do not place heavy objects on your floppy disks.
8. Do not eat, smoke, or use erasers near your floppy disks. Foreign
particles inside the floppy disk's jacket can damage the magnetic
surface.
9. Magnetic energy can destroy the data on your floppy disks. Keep your
floppy disks away from speakers, radios, television sets and other
sources of magnetic fields.
