Cautions In Usage - Pioneer BDR-S13UBK Owner's Manual

Cautions in Usage

• Do not use in dusty locations, or in locations with high temperature or humidity.
• Do not subject the device to vibration or shock.
• When installing the device, ensure that the power to both the device and the PC
is first turned off. Furthermore, remove the protective transparent film on the front
surface of the drive (bezel) before use.
• During operation, do not move or pick up the device.
• Beware of condensation. If there is condensation, leave the device for one to two
hours for the moisture to evaporate before use.
• Do not inspect or modify the interior of the device.
• Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe any soiling from the exterior of the device. In the case
of significant soiling, dilute a neutral cleaner five to six times in water and use this
to moisten a soft cloth, wipe the soiling away, then dry with a dry cloth. Do not use
volatile chemicals including benzene, thinners, alcohol, or aerosol sprays, as these
may damage the surface. Before using chemically treated cloth intended for the
care of electronics, carefully read the cautions included with the cloths.
• There are no guarantees regarding data if data is lost while using this device. Ensure
you make regular backups of your data for recovery in the case of malfunctions.
Handling discs
• Do not touch or scratch the signal (shiny) side of the disc.
• Hold the disc either by both edges, or by the center hole
and one edge.
• Do not apply stickers or labels to the disc.
• Do not use cracked or significantly warped discs. Doing
so may lead to a malfunction in the device.
• When using old or rental discs, check that there are no
cracks around the center hole. Centrifugal force from
high-speed rotation may enlarge these cracks, causing
the disc to break.
• Do not use discs with special shapes (heart-shaped,
hexagonal, etc.) or other non-standard discs. Doing so
may lead to a malfunction.
• If there is dust or fingerprints on the disc, use a soft cloth
to wipe outwards from the center to the outer edge of
the disc. Do not wipe using a circular motion on the disc.
• Do not use record spray or antistatic agents. Doing so
may damage the disc.
To protect the disc, ensure it is kept in a disc case, and check for soiling or dust on
the recording surface before use.
