Usage Precautions

Do not place items other than discs in the drive.

Do not leave the disc cover in the open position or touch the lens.

Under some conditions, dust may build up on the lens, or on a disc. This may result in a

read or write malfunction.

Do not open the drive or move the computer while the drive is being accessed. Doing so

could cause it to malfunction.

In addition, after running an application involving access to a disc, do not open the drive

or remove the disc until the application has been closed.

Do not expose the drive to excessive smoke that may leave a residue, i.e. oil smoke, or

tobacco smoke. Doing so could shorten the life of the drive lens.

We recommend cleaning the drive lens with an air puffer used for camera lenses. (Do not

use any spray-type of lens cleaning products.)

Never insert foreign objects such as paper clips into the drive. Doing so could cause it to

malfunction.

Do not use discs that have become deformed, warped, or are not completely round.

Do not touch the interface cable while the drive is being accessed. Doing so may cause

the drive and/or computer to malfunction.

In the case of DVD-RAM, only non-cartridge discs or removable cartridge discs can be

used.

If the computer has both USB2.0 and USB1.1 ports, use the USB2.0 port.

When connection is made to the USB1.1 port, the drive functions as a USB1.1 drive.

When the drive is used as a USB1.1 drive, the picture and sound playback of DVD-Video

discs may be interrupted and may not play smoothly.

For AutoPlay CDs:

• If an AutoPlay CD does not start after the computer resumes from the standby or hiberna-

tion modes, remove the disc from the drive, then reinsert the disc again after a 15 second

wait.

• An AutoPlay CD may start during file access, depending on the status of the disc.

Initial setting Set all Mode Switches to OFF

when the drive is in use.

Usage Precautions

Handling Discs with Care:

Before using discs, carefully read through the Operating Instructions, the instructions for

handling the discs, and whatever is written on the disc packaging.

If the discs are not handled properly, they may become dirty or scratched, the writing speed

may be reduced or data may not be recorded or played back properly. Other damage may

result including drive failures.

Keep the following precautions.

Do not touch the data surface.

Keep the disc surfaces clean and free from dirt, dust and fingerprints, and do not allow

them to become scratched.

Do not write on the surface of the disc with a ballpoint pen or other writing instrument nor

paste any paper to it.

Do not drop, bend, or place heavy objects on top of discs.

Do not place or store discs in locations exposed to heat, direct sunlight, humidity or dust.

If the disc is brought from a cold into a warm environment, moisture may form on the disc.

Wipe this moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.

When discs are not actually being used, make sure to keep them inside their protective

cases or cartridges.

If the disc becomes dirty, clean it with the followings.

To remove dirt from a disc

Wipe a disc with a dry, soft cloth from

the center toward the edges.

If the disc heavily gets dirty, wipe a disc

with a moist, soft cloth from the center toward the edges, and then wipe it again with a

dry cloth to take up remaining moisture.

Use the Panasonic disc cleaner to clean these discs.

Do not use a cloth, CD cleaners or any other such cleaners under any circumstances.
