4.6 Cartridge Handling Precautions

• Do not touch the tape inside the cartridge and do not clean the surface of the
tape or the inside of the cartridge.
• Do not store cartridges in an environment of extreme humidity or dryness.
• Do not place cartridges in a place subject to direct sunlight or magnetization,
such as under a telephone or near a transformer.
• Do not drop cartridges or handle them roughly.
• Do not stick more than one label on cartridges as this may cause jams inside the
drive.
• Always store cartridges in their plastic cases when not in use.
• Store cartridges in a clean environment.
• Do not use cartridges that are nearing the end of their useful life.
Use cartridges in temperatures ranging from 1°C to 35°C only.
If cartridges are placed in an environment with temperatures outside the suited
range, always allow the cartridges to reach the accepted operating temperature
before using them. It usually requires at least 2 hours for the cartridges to reach the
accepted range of operating temperature.
To avoid problems arising from environment temperatures, follow the guidelines
below:
• When installing the drive, make sure to follow the instructions given in Chapter
2.
• Do not place cartridges in a location subject to extreme temperatures, such as
inside a car exposed to direct sunlight.
