NOTE: Dont use this feature except in an emergency. 1) Turn the power to OFF. 2) Poke a fine-tipped object (such as a straightened heavy duty paper clip) into the small hole at the front. The front door will pop open and the disk tray will come partway out. 3) Pull the front door to open it all the way, then grip the disc tray between thumb and forefinger and gently pull it straight out.

ACT ACT COMP COMP

NOTE: This feature is a last measure to be used only in an emergency. Using it excessively will cause malfunction.
Installation, Usage and Handling Precautions
s Installation Avoid placing the drive in a location subject to : - high humidity - high temperature - mechanical vibration - direct sunlight Operation - During operation, excessive vibration or a sudden jolt to the drive may cause a malfunction. - Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes in temperature. This may cause condensation to collect inside the drive. - Do not play a CD having other shape than a circular disc, such as heart shaped disc, or malfunction may occur. - Do not use damaged, cracked, or warped discs. If they break inside the unit, they may damage the optics. The disc in the drive unit rotates at high speed.
Do not use non-standard discs, or these may adversely influence this unit and other equipment. Transportation - Always remove the disc before moving the drive. Notes on CD-RW/DVD-RW discs This product can read CD-RW/DVD-RW disc data. Note the following: - A little longer time is needed to sense a CD-RW/DVD-RW disc when the operation starts, compared with standard CD-ROM/DVD-ROM discs. - Since playback signal level of CD-RW/DVD-RW is lower than the replicated CD/DVD discs, reading speed of those discs is lower than that of the replicated discs to ensure data reading. - Blank discs, discs that you failed to write data or discs that session close processing has not been made-these discs cannot be used. - Operation may not start, or the data may not be read under the following conditions: The quality of the recorded signal has deteriorated due to the dirt or scratches on the disc, or frequently rewrote discs. If the drive fails to read the disc, open the disc drawer, check the data side of the disc (side opposite the label side) for dust or scratches, and reinsert the disc and close the drawer to try to read the disc again.

Troubleshooting

* When the DVD-ROM drive does not work with the hard disk drive in primary IDE channel.
(SOLUTION) 1. Check the DVD-ROM drive Master/Slave Jumper setting. The DVD-ROM drive should be set to the Slave mode if it is on the same IDE cable as your Hard Drive that is set to the Primary Master mode. 2. Check to be sure your hard disk Interface type is IDE type. 3. Check your hard disk Master/Slave Jumper setting. Some old-version IDE type hard disks were set to Master Only mode. In that case, contact your hard disk company and change your hard disk jumper setting to master mode. 4. If the DVD-ROM drive does not work with above methods, you may need a secondary IDE card. If you use the secondary IDE card, you should set the DVD-ROM drive jumper to the master mode if the DVD-ROM drive is the first device you are connecting to the secondary IDE card. * When the DVD-ROM drive does not install in OS/2 warp. (SOLUTION) 1. Select NON-LISTED IDE CD. * DVD-ROM drive is not present in Windows 3.1 or 3.11 or DOSSHELL. (SOLUTION) 1. When the WIN or DOSSHELL command lines are present in your AUTOEXEC.BAT, make sure that the MSCDEX.EXE command line appears before the WIN or the DOSSHELL command lines. Please Note: Since this product supports Region Playback Control Phase II, a certain MPEG decoder card or Software without regional code setting may cause this drive not to read DVD-ROM discs. This DVD-ROM Drive enables you to change the regional code up to 5 times.
