How to Protect Disc Data

Write-protect switch
Cleaning discs
What to do when a disc is locked
• Do not drop the disc cartridge or subject it to any violent shocks or vibrations.
• Do not disassemble the disc cartridge. It is a precision component that was
carefully adjusted prior to shipment.
• Do not open the disc cartridge shutter manually or touch the disc inside. The
shutter is designed to open automatically when the disc cartridge is inserted
into the devices.
• Do not use the disc cartridge under high humidity and/or wide temperature
fluctuation ambient conditions. Condensation may make it impossible to read
or write data.
• Store the disc cartridge in its hard case.
• Do not expose the disc cartridge to direct sunlight or excessive heat, such as
on the dashboard or glove compartment of an automobile.
• Do not store the disc cartridge under the following conditions:
- Location exposed to excessive dust and/or debris.
- Location exposed to direct sunlight.
- Near heat sources.
- Location subject to high humidity.
Data cartridges are equipped with a write-protect switch to prevent the
accidental deletion of data on the disc cartridge or the inadvertent writing of
unwanted data.
Slide the switch in the direction of the arrow as illustrated below. A red surface
appears in place of the switch to indicate that the cartridge is write-protected. To
release the protection, return the switch to its original position.
Refer to the description of the disc.
The disc cartridge is designed to guard against dust and other airborne
containments. Therefore there is no need to clean the discs. Using a disc
cleaning device may damage the surface of the disc.
To avoid locking the disc, do not insert it into the unit when the unit is off. If the
disc is locked, turn on the unit, confirm that the disc is completely loaded into
the unit, and then eject the disc by issuing the EJECT command or pressing the
eject button.
