About the CD-RW drive
A CD-RW drive is a device that lets you create or play
audio CDs, backup and restore data from the internal
hard disk, and read data from a CD-ROM. An optional
CDRW16G can be installed in the AW16G. Please be
aware that other CD-RW drives cannot be installed in the
AW16G.
• Even if a CD-RW drive is operating normally, it may fail
a read or write operation approximately once in five
hundred times.
• Yamaha will take no responsibility for any damages,
direct or consequential, that may result from the use of
the above CD-RW drive.

Handling
1 Do not drop the drive or subject it to strong
physical shock.
B Never touch the objective lens.
C Be careful that the objective lens does not
become dusty or dirty.
D If the objective lens becomes dusty, use a
commercially available blower etc. to blow the
dust off with clean air.
E Before installing the drive, touch a grounded
metal object so that the drive is not damaged
by any static electricity that may be in your
body.
F Since the inside of the drive contains powerful
magnetic circuitry, do not allow any magnetic
material to come near the drive. (In particular,
any metallic fragments, screws, or pins that
enter the drive mechanism will cause opera-
tion to fail.)
G Do not press on the upper cover.
Installing the CD-RW drive
1
Turn off the power of the AW16G.
As described in “Turning the power off (shut down)”
(
→
p. 12), turn off the power of the AW16G. For
safety’s sake, also unplug the AC adaptor and the
AW16G from the electrical outlet.
2
Turn the AW16G over on its face.
Be careful not to drop the AW16G on the floor, or
damage the components of the top panel. Spread
out a soft cloth on a level surface, and stack maga-
zines etc. to support each of the four corners of the
upside-down AW16G.
3
Insert the CD-RW drive into the slot.
Insert the CD-RW drive into the slot by pressing
slightly right of center on the back edge of the drive.
The slot cover swings open. When the CD-RW drive
reaches the back of the slot, continue applying pres-
sure until you feel the connector click into place.
You will need to apply about as much pressure as
when pressing an elevator button.
4
Fasten the CD-RW drive with screws.
Use the two included screws to fasten the CD-RW
drive in place (“4” in the diagram at left).
Be sure to follow installation steps 1–4 exactly as
directed. In particular, reading and writing may not occur
correctly if the screws have not been tightened suffi-
ciently.
