Precautions
■ Installation
• Avoid placing the drive in a location subject to:
– high humidity
– high temperature
– excessive dust
– mechanical vibration
– direct sunlight
• The drive can be used in either a horizontal or vertical position.
• Do not force the power cable. It is keyed to protect the drive.
■ Operation
• Do not move the drive when it is in use. Doing so may cause data
error and damage the optical pick-up.
• Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes in temperature as
condensation may form on the lens inside the drive. Should the
surrounding temperature suddenly rise while the drive is turned
on, stop using the drive and leave the power on at least one hour
before operating it or turning it off. Operating the drive
immediately after a sudden increase in temperature may result in a
malfunction.
■ Transportation
• Close the disc drawer before moving the drive.
• Keep the original packing materials. When you need to ship the
drive to another location, repacking it in its original container will
help you transport it safely.

The drive may begin reading the Table of Contents (TOC) data
when it accepts the disc. The busy indicator lights up in amber
while the drive is reading the TOC.
For subsequent drive operations, follow the instructions provided

Note:
The busy indicator stays lit in amber if:
– the disc is not properly placed on the loading tray
– a malfunction occurs.
In either case, eject the disc and place it in the loading tray again
making sure that it sits properly in the tray. If doing this does not
solve the problem and the busy indicator still remains lit in amber,
consult your dealer or qualified service personnel.
Caution: Do not forcibly close the disc drawer. Applying excessive
force may damage the loading mechanism. The tray’s mechanism is
designed to operate with a “feather touch”.
