If a power protection device is fitted to your PC, you
must remove the power cord then wait for a complete
shutdown of your system before removing the cover.
Remove the power protection device cables before any
servicing operation. Always replace the cover before
switching the PC on again.
To avoid electric shock and harm to your eyes by laser
light, do not open the laser module. The laser module
should be serviced by service personnel only. Do not
attempt to make any adjustment to the laser unit. Refer
to the label on the CD-ROM drive for power
requirements and wavelength. This product is a class
1 laser product.
CAUTION
Static electricity can damage electronic components.
Turn all equipment OFF. Don’t let your clothes touch the
accessory.
