Control for CD-R Data CD
The basic default

Speed
Control will allow
you
to select the maximum read
speed (52X)
for CD-R
media,
simply by pressing
the
eject
button. Note that this function is
only
available with a
CD-R data disc.
To enable 52X CD-R read

CAUTION:
The
quality
of CD-R data disc varies
significantly
from brand to brand
(or brandless),
as well as disc condition used over time. A disc that is
poorly
balanced or that
may
have cracks in it
greatly
increases the chance of disc failure or disc shatter when
being
read back at
speeds higher
than
40X,
possibly causing damage
to the drive.
Closely inspect
discs
you plan
to use in the drive for
any
abnormalities or cracks.
If
you
hear
strange
noise or sounds from the drive
during operation,
this could be a
sign
of an unbalanced or
damaged
disc and it should be removed
immediately.
LG Electronics does not
warranty

damage
caused
by faulty
or shattered discs.
