Precautions
Usage and storage
locations
Do not use or store this drive in locations
subject to high humidity, high
temperatures, strong vibrations, or direct
sunlight.
Operation
• Do not move the drive during operation,
to prevent the possibility of
malfunctions.
• Place the drive on a level surface for
operation.
• Do not place any objects on top of the
drive.
• Protect the drive from sudden
temperature changes. Do not use the
drive immediately after moving it from
a cold to a warm location or after the
ambient temperature has risen
drastically. Otherwise, condensation
inside the drive can occur. If the
temperature changes drastically during
operation, stop using the drive while
keeping power to the drive turned on
and let it stand for about an hour, then
turn the power off.
Transportation
• When you transport the drive, use the
original box and packing materials.
• Before moving the drive, make sure you
remove the disc from the drive.
Bus Reset
The computer constantly monitors the
i.LINK connection status. When an
i.LINK compatible component is
connected to or disconnected from the
computer, or when power to an i.LINK
compatible component is turned on or off,
a bus reset is carried out to accommodate
the new condition. If a bus reset occurs
while data are being transferred to this
drive, the data may be corrupted or lost.
Be sure to avoid this condition.
Lens
Do not touch the lens in this drive.
Furthermore, to avoid dust sticking to the
lens, do not open the tray other than to
remove or insert the disc.
Notes on discs
Note the following in order to protect data
stored on discs.
• Do not stick any labels on the disc nor
scratch or otherwise damage the disc.
• Do not touch the data side of the disc
(opposite the label), and hold the disc as
