front right side of your FotoShow ™ Image Center.
If your FotoShow ™ Image Center is attached to a computer, you may not always be able
to eject the disk. Please check the User’s Manual included on the Zip ® disk that came
with your FotoShow Image Center for more information on ejecting Zip disks when using
the FotoShow Image Center as a USB Zip drive.
CAUTION! Make sure that the activity and status lights are not blinking green before
removing your Zip ® disk. Removing a Zip disk while it is being accessed may cause
irreparable data loss!
CAUTION! To avoid damage to your FotoShow ™ Image Center’s Zip ® drive or your Zip
disk, always remove the disk when it is not in use or before disconnecting or moving
your FotoShow

If you need to eject a disk during a power failure, disconnect the power supply from the
FotoShow Image Center and push a pen into the emergency disk eject hole on the back
of the drive.
CAUTION! Never use the emergency eject procedure while the power supply is connected
to the FotoShow ™ Image Center. Never force a disk into or out of the Zip ® drive as this
could damage the drive.
Ejecting CompactFlash ™ Cards and IBM ® Microdrives ™
Make sure that the CompactFlash ™ /Microdrive ™ reader is not busy before ejecting. If you
are transferring files while your FotoShow ™ Image Center is connected to a TV, you should
see a dialog box on the TV screen that will show you when the transfer is complete.
When the copy completes, you can safely remove your CompactFlash card or Microdrive.
