DVD-ROM Drive
The DVD-ROM drive is a deviee that can read the data from both CD and DVD discs. When
you place a disc in the drive the computer will determine the type of data that is on the disc and
load the appropriate application to run, play, or view the program material on the disc.
Usage Precaution
• Do not place items other than discs in the tray.
• Do not leave the tray in the open position.
• Under some conditions, dust may build up on the disc, possibly resulting in malfunction.
• Do not apply excessive force to the tray in the open position, doing so could damage the tray.
• Do not open the DVD-ROM drive while the DVD-ROM drive is being accessed. Doing so
could cause it to malfunction. In addition, after running an application involving access to a
disc, do not open the DVD-ROM drive or remove the disc until after the application has been
closed.
• After closing the tray, do not attempt to access a disc until the DVD-ROM drive indicator
(@) disappears.
• Never insert foreign objects such as paper clips into the slot in the DVD-ROM drive.
• Do not use discs that have become deformed (warped, not completely round, etc.).
To avoid damaging discs:
• Do not touch the surface as it can cause the disc to become dirty or scratched.
• Do not allow discs to become dirty or scratched.
• Do not place or store discs in locations exposed to heat, direct sunlight, humidity or dust.
• Do not write on the surface of the disc with a ball-point pen or other writing instrument.
• If the disc is brought from a cold into a wann environment, moisture may form on the disc.
Wipe this moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.
• Do not drop, bend, or place heavy objects on top of discs.
• Cleaning the disc using a CD cleaner is recommended once every 2 or 3 months.
If the disc gets dirty
After wiping the disc with a moist, soft cloth, wipe it with a dry
cloth. Always wipe from the center toward the edge.
