Notes on CD and DVD media
❑ Do not switch the power saving modes while you are playing the DVD disc.
❑ Do not switch between LCD and the external display while you are playing
the DVD video.
❑ Change the setting to disable the screen saver and the virus checker (if it is
active).
❑ Do not use memory-resident utility software to speed up disc access. This
may cause the notebook to malfunction.
❑ Do not drop or bend the disc.
❑ Do not touch the surface of the disc. Fingerprints and dust on the surface of a
disc may cause reading errors. Proper care of the disc is essential to maintain
its reliability. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners or anti-static spray, as they may cause damage to the disc.
❑ For normal cleaning, hold the disc by its edge and use a soft cloth to wipe the
surface from the center out.
❑ If the disc is badly soiled, moisten a soft cloth with water, wring it out well,
and use it to wipe the surface of the disc from the center out. Wipe off any
remaining moisture with a dry soft cloth.
When using your notebook to play DVDs on your TV
❑ If you connect a TV to your notebook to play DVDs, see “Selecting the
Display Mode” for instructions.
❑ When a TV is connected to a notebook that is set to factory settings, a part of
the video screen will not appear. To view the entire screen, adjust the display
resolution to 640 x 480. See “Selecting the Display Mode” for more
information.
❑ If you set the display resolution higher than the default setting (1280 x 1024,
24 bits), the DVD video may not play properly.
❑ (For models with SXGA+ panels) To view the DVD video clearly, set the
display resolution to 1024 x 768 dots (16 bits).
