When Using Peripheral Devices
Pay strict attention to the following points to avoid damage to the computer, peripheral devices,
cables, etc. Also, in addition to following this manual and the Reference Manual, carefully read
the instruction manuals for the peripheral devices being used.
Use only peripheral devices that conform to the computer’s specifications.
Connect the devices properly, paying close attention to the condition and position of the
connectors.
If a connection cannot be made easily, do not apply undue force; check once more to confirm
the condition and position of the connector (alignment of pins, etc.) .
If the connector has holding screws, fasten the screws firmly.
Do not carry the computer with cables attached, and do not pull on the cables forcefully.
Do not power off your computer or press the floppy disk drive eject button while the
multimedia pocket device indicator is on.
Doing so may damage the data on the floppy disk and render the floppy disk useless.
Use care when handling floppy disks.
To protect the data on your floppy disks or to prevent a floppy disk from becoming stuck in
your computer, avoid the following:
• Sliding the shutter on the floppy disk manually.
• Exposing the floppy disk to a magnetic field.
• Storing the floppy disk in locations prone to high temperatures, low pitched noise, damp-
ness, or dust.
• Applying more than one label on the floppy disk.
Confirm the contents of a floppy disk before formatting it.
Confirm that no important data is on the floppy disk, because all data on the floppy disk will
be erased.
Use the write-protect tab.
This is a must for preserving important data. This prevents your data from being erased or overwrit-
ten.
