Caring for CD or DVD Discs
❖ Store your discs in their original containers to protect
them from scratches and keep them clean.
❖ Do not bend a disc or place heavy objects on top of it.
❖ Do not apply a label to or otherwise mar the surface of a
disc.
❖ Hold a disc by its outside edge. Fingerprints on the
surface can prevent the DVD-ROM drive or multi-
function drive from reading the data properly.
❖ Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or extreme heat or
cold.
❖ To clean a disc that is dirty, wipe it with a clean, dry
cloth. The most efficient method to clean it is to start
from the center of the disc and wipe toward the outward
edge (not in a circle). If necessary, moisten the cloth with
water or a neutral cleaner (not benzine or rubbing
alcohol). Let the disc dry completely before inserting it in
the drive.
Powering down the computer
Pushing the power button to off before shutting down the
Windows operating system could cause you to lose your work.
Make sure the system indicator panel’s disk light and the
drive-in use light are off. If you turn off the power while a disk
is being accessed, you may lose data or damage the disk and/
or drive.
When you power down the computer, you have three options
to choose from: Turn Off (or Shut Down) Computer, Standby,
and Hibernation.
