CD-ROM drive
Your system comes with a CD-ROM drive. This drive is located on the
front panel of your system. The CD-ROM drive allows you to play
different types of compact discs (CDs) and video CDs.
CDs, like diskettes, are also compact, lightweight, and easy to carry
around. However, they are more delicate than diskettes and must be
handled with extra care.
To insert a CD into your system’s CD-ROM drive:
1 Gently push the Stop/Eject button located on the front panel.
2 When the disc tray slides open, insert the CD. Make sure that the
label or title side of the disc is facing upward.
Caution! Hold the disc by the edges to avoid leaving smudges or
fingerprints.
3 Push the Stop/Eject button again to close the tray.
To take care of your CDs:
• Keep your discs in a disk case when not in use to avoid scratches or
other damage. Any kind of dirt or damage can affect the data on
the disc, impair the disc lens reader on the CD-ROM drive, or stop
the system from successfully reading the disc.
• When handling discs, always hold them by the edges to avoid
smudges or fingerprints.
• When cleaning discs, use a clean, dust-free cloth and wipe in a
straight line from the center to the edge. Do not wipe in a circular
motion.
• Clean your CD-ROM drive periodically. You may refer to a cleaning
kit for instructions. Cleaning kits can be purchased in any system
or electronics shop.
