Precautions
Installation
Avoid placing the drive in a location subject to:
– high humidity
– high temperature
– mechanical shock and vibration
– direct sunlight
Operation
* Do not move the drive while it is operating. Doing so may cause a
malfunction.
* Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes from low to high in
temperature. This may cause water condensation to collect inside the
drive. If the ambient temperature should suddenly rise while the drive is
turned on, wait at least one hour before turning on the drive. If you
attempt to operate the drive immediately after a sudden increase in
temperature, a malfunction may occur.
* Do not turn off the drive while a tape is inside the drive.
Transportation
* Keep the original packing materials for possible future shipments of the
drive.
* Be sure to remove any tapes from drive prior to transportation. After
removing the drive from the computer, repack the drive into its original
packaging.
