Do not drop the notebook or submit it to strong shocks.
CD-ROM Drive
Your notebook is installed with a CD-ROM drive. CD-ROM discs can be used to
store data, video or audio files, and software applications. The discs are not
erasable but they store a tremendous amount of data so they are ideal for
distributing long files.
Compact Disc Maintenance
If the recorded side is dirty, wipe the disc, from the center out to the edge, with a
dry soft cloth. If it is wiped in the opposite direction (from the edge towards the
center) or in a circular direction, you may damage the disc. Never use the
following products on a disc:
•
Alcohol, benzene, thinner or other cleaning solvents
•
Cleaning fluids containing abrasives
•
Sprays or cleaners for vinyl discs
•
Anti-static products
Using the CD-ROM Drive
Your notebook is installed with a special software application named Sharp
Player. Sharp Player lets you operate the CD-ROM interactively by pointing and
clicking on the user-friendly interface. You can consult the online help that is
provided with Sharp Player for information on using the program.
Caution: If you are using the CD-ROM drive, we recommend that you
disable the power management routines in your notebook. The power
management can interfere with the transmission of data so that audio or
video files don't run smoothly.
