Keep diskettes in a moderate environment. Don’t leave
diskettes sitting in the sun, or in extreme cold or heat.
Keep diskettes away from magnetic fields, such as
electrical appliances, telephones, and loudspeakers.
(Remember that diskettes store information
magnetically.)
Do not place diskettes on top of your monitor or near an
external hard disk drive.
Always hold a
5?4inch
diskette by its protective jacket
and never touch the magnetic surface (exposed by the
read/write slot). The oils on your fingertips can damage
it.
Do not place anything on top of your diskettes, and be
sure they do not get bent.
Carefully label your diskettes and indicate the type and
density. Attach the label only along the top of a diskette
(next to the manufacturer’s label). Do not stick several
labels on top of one another; this can make it difficult to
insert and remove the diskette in the drive.
Write on a diskette label before you attach it to the
diskette. If you need to write on a label that is already on
the diskette, use only a soft-tip pen-not a ballpoint pen
or a pencil.
Store diskettes in their protective envelopes and in a
proper location, such as a diskette container. Do not store
diskettes flat or stack them on top of each other.
