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 and 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.
