Beware of the following:
❑ Do not use the Eject PC option in Windows or press the UNDOCK switch on
the docking station while writing data to a CD-R or CD-RW. Doing so may
severely damage your notebook.
❑ Do not strike or shake the notebook while writing data to a disc.
❑ Memory-resident disc utilities, such as the screen saver and virus checker,
may cause unstable operation or data loss. Deactivate these utilities (if
they are active) before writing data to a disc.
❑ Always use the AC adapter as the power source for your computer when
you are writing data to a CD-R or CD-RW. Using battery power may result in
data transfer failure.
