Caution!

The disc rotates at high speed in the drive unit. 
Use of worn, damaged, or non-standard 
CD-ROM discs can adversely affect the drive 
and cause the disc to shatter or crush while in
use. Disc crush can only occur when you use a
damaged CD-ROM disc in the drive. It is an
extremely rare occurrence, but there are steps
which can be taken to prevent it.

Always check your discs before inserting
them into the drive.
1. Take care not to use worn, cracked, 

damaged, warped or poor quality 
CD-ROMs, as this may cause damage to
your drive.

2. Check the clear plastic on the center of 

the disc, cracks here are the main 
cause of disc crush.

3. Do not play CD-ROMs which are a non-

standard (I.e. non-circular)shape, such as
heart shaped discs, or discs in the shape
of a business card.

How can you keep your discs from becoming
damaged?
1. When not in use, remove discs from the

drive.

2. Keep discs in the packaging supplied with

them and out of direct sunlight and away
from heat sources.

Excessive vibration or a sudden jolt to the drive 
during operation may cause a malfunction. 
Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes in
temperature as it may cause condensation to 
collect inside the drive.
