Diskettes
1. Store your diskettes in the container they came in to protect them and keep
them clean. If a diskette is dirty, do not use cleaning fluid. Clean it with a soft
damp cloth.
2. Do not slide back the diskette’s protective metal covering or touch the
diskette’s magnetic surface. Fingerprints may prevent the diskette drive from
reading data from the diskette.
3. Data may be lost if the diskette is twisted; bent; or exposed to direct sunlight,
extreme heat or cold.
4. Do not place heavy objects on your diskettes.
5. Do not eat, smoke, or use erasers near your diskettes. Foreign particles inside
the diskette’s jacket can damage the magnetic surface.
6. Magnetic energy can destroy data on diskettes. Keep your diskettes away
from speakers, radios, television sets and other sources of magnetic fields.
