Keep diskettes away from magnetic fields (such
as transformers, AC motors, magnets, TVs, and
radios).
Make copies of important diskettes.
Handle diskettes with the metal shutter closed.
Never touch the surface of the diskette itself.
Keep diskettes out of direct sunlight and away

TURNING OFF YOUR COMPUTER
We recommend that you exit any program, return
to the system prompt (A> or
c>
), and remove any
diskette in the floppy drive before you turn off your
computer. Then, press
POWER
to turn off your com-
puter.
Cautions:
You can exit some programs by pressing
BREAK
or
CTRL+C.
However, if you exit some programs
in this way, you might lose information. We rec-
ommend you always follow the instructions in
the software documentation for exiting a pro-
gram.
Do not turn off the computer while the HDD indi-
cator or the floppy disk drive indicator is on.
These indicators show that the computer is
reading from or writing to the hard disk or dis-
kette. Turning off the power at these times can
cause a
loss
of the data.
