Diskette drives and diskettes must be the correct type to store data successfully.
If you use the wrong diskette in your 3.5-inch diskette drive, the data on the diskette could
be destroyed.
The diskette drive uses the following 3.5-inch diskettes:
•
1.0M-Byte capacity (stores approximately 720K Bytes of data)
•
2.0M-Byte capacity
(stores approximately 1.44M Bytes of data).

3
1.0M-Byte diskette
4

5

Setting the Write-Protect Tab
Write-protecting diskettes is necessary to avoid data loss.
When diskettes are write-protected, you can read data from the diskettes, but you cannot
write data on them.
There is a write-protect tab on the 3.5-inch diskette.
To locate the write-protect tab, turn the diskette over with the label facing down.
To prevent writing on a diskette, slide down the write-protect tab to open the protect slot
.
To
allow writing on a diskette, slide up the write-protect tab to cover the protect slot.
Handling 3.5-Inch Diskettes
Be careful with your diskettes. Because each piece of information occupies such a small
area on the diskette, small scratches, dust, food, or tobacco particles can make the
information unusable. Be sure to remember the following:
•
Do not touch the recording surfaces
•
Keep diskettes away from magnets and magnetic field sources such as telephones,
dictation equipment and electronic calculators
•
Keep diskettes away from extreme heat and cold; the recommended temperature range
is 10
°
C to 60
°
C (50
°
F to 140
°

•
Proper care helps prevent loss of data
•
Make backup copies of your diskettes regularly.
