CD-ROMs

Take the following precautions when handling CD-ROMS.
When removing a CD-ROM from its case, lift it
out while pressing the center holder of the case,
as in the diagram on the right.
Handle the CD-ROM by its edges, trying as much
as possible not to touch the surfaces.
Store the CD-ROM in its case when not using it.
Do not leave it in a high temperature place.
Do not bend it or place heavy objects on it.
Do not write with a ballpoint pen, pencil, etc. on
the label surface (printed side).
If you suddenly move the CD-ROM from a cold place such as outside to a warm place,
condensation will form on the surface and the CD-ROM drive will be unable to read data. If this
happens, wipe the CD-ROM with a dry soft cloth, and then allow it to dry naturally. Do not use
anything like a hairdryer, etc. to dry it.
Critical Points
If the CD-ROM gets dirty, wipe it clean with a dry soft cloth from the center outwards. Do not
wipe it with benzine, paint thinner, water, record spray, antistatic solution or silicon cloth.
A CD-ROM is a ROM that stores computer data
instead of the audio data stored on music CDs
(compact disks).
ROM stands for Read Only Memory, which
means it is a memory medium that can only read
data and cannot write data later. The CD-ROMs
which are marked as in the diagram on the right
can be used with this computer.
A little time is required after installing a CD-ROM until the computer recognizes it.
