Usage Precautions
Do not place items other than discs on the tray.
Do not leave the tray in the open position or touch the lens area. Should the lens
become soiled by dust or dirt, the unit may not read discs properly.
Under some conditions, dust may build up on the optical lens or disc, possibly resulting in
malfunction.
Do not apply excessive force to the tray in the open position, doing so could damage the
tray.
Do not open the drive or move the computer while the drive is being accessed. Doing so
could cause it to malfunction. In addition, after running an application involving access to
a disc, do not open the drive or remove the disc until after the application has been closed.
After closing the tray, do not attempt to access a disc until the MP indicator () disappears.
Do not expose the drive to oily or tobacco smoke. Doing so could shorten the service life
of the lens.
If the drive malfunctions, we recommend cleaning the lens with a blower used for camera
lenses. (Do not use strong, cleaning sprays.)
Never insert foreign objects such as paper clips into the drive.
Do not use discs that have become deformed (warped, not completely round, etc.).
When the drive is installed, do not use an external drive (CD-ROM drive, DVD-ROM
drive, etc.).
For AutoPlay CDs:
• If an AutoPlay CD does not start after the computer resumes from the standby or
hibernation mode, we recommend reinserting the CD again after a 15-second wait.
• An AutoPlay CD may start during the access of a file.
E
To avoid damaging discs:
Do not touch the surface as it can cause the disc to become dirty or scratched.
Do not allow discs to become dirty or scratched.
Do not place or store discs in locations exposed to heat, direct sunlight, humidity or dust.
Do not write on the surface of the disc with a ball-point pen or other writing instrument.
If the disc is brought from a cold into a warm environment, moisture may form on the disc.
Wipe this moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.
Do not drop, bend, or place heavy objects on top of discs.
Cleaning the disc using a CD cleaner is recommended once every 2 or 3 months.
If the disc gets dirty
After wiping the disc with a moist, soft cloth, wipe it with a dry cloth. Always wipe from
the center toward the edge.

disc when using CF-27, CF-28M** and CF-28P** model.)
Windows 98
In the following cases, the drive speed may not be set to [Low]. At a time like this,
restart your computer.

E
Power-saving Mode
If the drive has not been accessed within 30 seconds, the drive motor will automatically shut
down to reduce the power consumption. When the drive is accessed once again, the power
of the drive motor is turned on. However, approximately 30 seconds are required until data
is actually read from the disc.
