Do not power down your computer or press the disk eject button while the MP indicator (
) is on.
Doing so may damage the data on the floppy disk and render the floppy disk useless.
Use care when handling floppy disks.
To protect the data on your floppy disks or to prevent a floppy disk from becoming stuck in your
computer, avoid the following:
• Sliding the shutter on the floppy disk manually.
• Exposing the floppy disk to a magnetic field.
• Storing the floppy disk in locations prone to high temperatures, low pitched noise, dampness, or dust.
• Applying more than one label on the floppy disk.
Confirm the contents of a floppy disk before formatting it.
Confirm that no important data is on the floppy disk, because all data on the floppy disk will be erased.
Use the write-protect tab.
This is a must for preserving important data.
This prevents your data from being erased or
overwritten.

Hard Disk Lock
When the Hard Disk Lock is set to [Enable], it is impossible to read/write data from/to the hard disk when
the hard disk is installed in a different computer, since a password is also set for the hard disk. When the
hard disk is returned to the original computer, you can read and write data as before. In this case, however,
make the settings in the Setup Utility exactly the same as they were before the hard disk was removed.
(Note that this Hard Disk Lock does not guarantee complete protection of data.) (

Measures”)
When Using Peripheral Devices
Pay strict attention to the following points to avoid damage to the computer, peripheral devices, cables, etc.
Also, in addition to following this manual, carefully read the instruction manuals for the peripheral devices
being used.
Connect the devices properly, paying close attention to the condition and position of the connectors.
If a connection cannot be made easily, do not apply undue force; check once more to confirm the condi-
tion and position of the connector (alignment of pins, etc.) .
If the connector has holding screws, fasten the screws firmly.
Do not carry the computer with cables attached, and do not pull on the cables forcefully.
