Handling Floppy Disks
•
Do not open the shutter and touch the disk inside; otherwise, you will not be able
to read or write data to the disk.
•
Do not place floppy disks near magnets or heat source, in direct sunlight or in a
dusty place, etc.
•
Never subject a disk to sudden shocks or extreme vibration. Do not drop, bend, or
place heavy objects on a disk.
•
Do not spill liquid onto a disk.
Inserting and Removing a Floppy Disk
Inserting
Hold the floppy disk with the arrow facing up and towards the drive. Slide the disk
into the drive until it locks into place.
•
Always insert a floppy disk straight into the floppy disk drive.
•
When inserting the disk, make sure it is not upside down.
•
Do not use excessive force when inserting the floppy disk. If you have
difficulty inserting or removing disks, seek the assistance of an
authorized service technician.
