Computer
Software
System Environment
This unit can be operated in the system environment explained here.
❏ Occasionally the CD-R and CD-RW discs written by the CD-R/RW drive can-
not be read by other CD drives*.These unreadable discs may need to be
read using the CD-R/RW drive on which they were written.
* The disc written using the CD-R/RW drive might not be readable by CD-
ROMs other than Multi-read compatible (UDF compatible) CD-ROMs.
Multiread compatible (UDF compatible) CD-ROMs are:
1. CD-ROMs that can read low reflectance.
2. CD-ROMs that support Packet Write.
❏ Please note: Certain software (i.e. particularly those including Video
playback) may require a considerably increased specification PC to give
acceptable results. While this CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive can read DVD-
video discs, decoding them to display on your pc’s monitor requires sep-
arate MPEG decoding that is done by separate hardware (either a
MPEG decoder card or MPEG decoding done by your video card), or
separate software that you install to do MPEG decoding.This items are
separate and are not included with this drive.
Install the supplied CD Recording Software before using this unit.
233MHz (or faster) Pentium (for 12x speed,
350MHz or faster recommended)

Emergency
Eject
How to Use the Discs
When using CD-ROM discs, CD-R discs, DVD discs or CD-RW
discs, don’t attach any stickers or labels to the discs. Using discs
with them attached not only causes read and write errors, but data
on the disc may be lost due to damage to the disc itself.
The Discs in this unit operate at a very high speed!
DO NOT use damaged, cracked or warped discs.The drive’s optical
unit may be damaged if they break.
DO NOT use non-standard discs. NON-standard discs may not play
or store data properly.
This drive has a feature that allows the CD to be ejected manually if
this becomes necessary in an emergency, such as failure of the
drive or a power outage.
NOTE: Don’t use this feature except in an emergency.
1) Turn the power to OFF.
2) Poke a fine-tipped object (such as a straightened heavy duty
paper clip) into the small hole above the eject button. The front
door will pop open and the disk tray will come partway out.
3) Pull the front door to open it all the way, then grip the disc tray
between thumb and forefinger and gently pull it straight out.
NOTE: This feature is a last measure to be used only in an
emergency. Using it excessively will cause malfunction.
* If you cannot get a good grip on the disc tray with your fingers, use
a steel binder clip or spring clamp to pull it out.

Caution!
The disc rotates at high speed in the drive unit.
Use of worn, damaged or non-standard CD-ROM
discs can only adversely affect the drive and cause
the disc to shatter or “crush”while in use.
Disc crush can only occur when you use a damaged
CD-ROM disc in the drive. It is an extremely rare
occurrence, but there are steps which can be taken to
prevent it.
Always check your discs before inserting them
into the drive.
1.Take care not to use worn, cracked, damaged,
warped or poor quality CD-ROMs, as this may
cause damage to your drive.
2. Check the clear plastic on the center of the disc,
cracks here are the main cause of disc crush.
3. Do not play CD-ROMs which are a non-standard
(I.e. non-circular)shape, such as heart shaped
discs, or discs in the shape of a business card.
How can you keep your discs from becoming
damaged?
1.When not in use, remove discs from the drive.
2. Keep discs in the packaging supplied with them
and out of direct sunlight, away from heat
sources.
Excessive vibration, or a sudden jolt to the drive, during
operation may cause a malfunction.
Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes in
temperature as it may cause condensation to collect
inside the drive.
