7
Cautions
Avoid sources of
strong magnetic
fields and electrical
signals.
Keep this device away from magnets or other objects that generate a
magnetic field and away from wireless equipment or other devices that emit
electrical signals as such equipment could cause this device to malfunction.
Do not drop or bump
the device.
Dropping or bumping the device during operation or transportation could
result in strong shocks or vibrations that could cause faults or damage.
Remove the MO
disk before moving
the device.
Do not move the device while it is operating or while an MO disk is installed
in the device as this could damage the MO disk. When moving the device, be
sure to remove the MO disk first.
Avoid equipment
that is sensitive to
electrical signals.
Because the use of this device in close proximity to a radio or television
receiver could disrupt signal reception, it should not be set up close to such
equipment. It should also be kept away from other devices that are sensitive
to electrical signals as it could cause such devices to malfunction.
Install the device
appropriately.
Take care not to install the device in locations affected by strong vibrations or
large amounts of dust or in locations where chemicals are sprayed as this
could result in device faults.
Do not use in
conditions or places
where there are
extremes of
temperature or
humidity.
Do not use this device in locations subject to extremely high (or low)
temperatures, in very humid locations, in direct sunlight or near heating
appliances (heaters, cooking appliances, etc.) as this could cause device
faults. Note also that because sudden changes in temperature can result in
condensation-related faults, allow the ambient temperature to stabilize
before using the device.
Do not operate the
device during MO
disk read/write
operations.
Because it uses a cache write function, this device continues to operate even
after writing has finished on the computer. Do not switch the device off or
eject the disk while the access light is flashing as this could result in device
damage or faults, or physical damage to the MO disk and/or the data on the
disk.
Back up your data.
Unanticipated malfunctions or damage occurring during an MO disk read/
write operation can cause the data on the MO disk and/or the data that was
being read/written to be unrecoverable. The data involved should be backed
up beforehand as a precautionary measure. Also, be sure to write-protect
MO disks containing important data and programs.
Do not place objects
on the device.
Do not place objects on top of this device as this could scratch or damage
the device.
Do not insert objects
(other than MO
disks) into the
device.
Do not put anything (floppy disks, etc.) other than MO disks into the slot as
this may cause damage or a fault.
Handle MO disks
carefully.
Eject the MO disk before connecting or disconnecting the MO Drive from
your computer.
