Handling a CD
When handling a CD, follow these guidelines:
Ÿ
Hold the disk by its edges. Do not touch the surface.
Ÿ
To remove dust or fingerprints, wipe the disk with a clean, soft cloth from the
center to the outside. Wiping the disk in a circular direction might cause loss of
data.
Ÿ
Do not write or stick paper on the disk.
Ÿ
Do not scratch or mark the disk.
Ÿ
Do not place or store the disk in direct sunlight.
Ÿ
Do not use benzene, thinners, or other cleaners to clean the disk.
Ÿ
Do not drop or bend the disk.
Loading a CD
To load a disk into a CD-ROM drive:
1. Press the Eject/Load button. The tray slides out of the drive. (Do not manually
force the tray open.)
2. Place the disk in the tray with the label facing up.
3. Close the tray by pressing the Eject/Load button, or by gently pushing the tray
forward. When the tray is closed, the indicator light on the front of the drive
will activate to indicate that the drive is in use.
4. To eject the disk, press the Eject/Load button. When the tray slides out,
carefully remove the disk.
5. Close the tray by pressing the Eject/Load button, or by gently pushing the tray
forward.
Note: If the tray does not slide out of the drive when you press the Eject/Load
button, insert the pointed end of a large paper clip into the emergency-eject
hole located above and to the left of the CD-ROM indicator light.
If you have installed a CD-ROM drive yourself and need additional information,
refer to the documentation that comes with the drive.
