* Do not use CD-R/RW drive when vertically installed.
1.4 PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATION
To avoid error
* Do not move the drive unit during operation.
* Do not operate the unit directly after a sudden increase in temperature.
NOTE :
A great proportion of problems are usually caused by the following.
➀Dust or Finger-prints on the surface of the CD-disc.
➁Random Electrical Noise.
➂Scratches and Defects on the surface of the CD-disc.
1.5 PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING DISCS

A-4
➂Do not write on the recording / reading
side, or paste paper to the surface of the disc.
When labelling a disc for identification
purposes, write only on the premarked label
side using a soft, felt tip marker.
➃Do not store the disc in a place where
the temperature is high.
➄Do not use benzine, thinners and
cleaners, etc.
A very mild soap and water solution
should be used to clean the disc.

CHAPTER 4 GUIDE TO OPERATION
4.1 INSTALLATIONS
• Starting the drive.
➀Turn on the power supply.
➁Press the eject button. The tray is ejected from the drive.
➂Place the disc in the tray with the disc's label facing up.
➃Press the eject button or press the tray lightly as in the following figure.
The tray is retracted automatically.
➄Loading start.
CAUTION:
• Do not insert any foreign objects into the disc tray. This could result in a
malfunction.
• Do not manually force the tray to open.
• When the drive is not in use, keep the tray closed to protect against dust and dirt.
• Do not press down hard on the tray when loading a disc, since this may result
in damage to or malfunction of the tray.
• In case of emergency, eject the tray manually
If for some reason the tray will not eject automatically, press the
eject-bar (for example, insert a straightened
paper clip minimum straight length = 45mm, Diameter =
1~ 1.5mm) into the emergency eject hole to manually eject the
tray. (Before proceeding with this emergency step, make sure
that the power is switched OFF.)
