TeChNICAl NOTe:

On/Off/Auto Power Switch:

The

AUTO

position allows the drive to be pow-

ered on and off automatically with your computer.

If the system’s power fan supports it, the LaCie

d2 SAFE will spin down while in the power save

mode. The d2 SAFE will then take several sec-

onds to spin up to full power. Use this position

when energy efficiency and quiet drive operation

are priorities.

The

ON

position allows quick access to your

data.

The

OFF

position just turns the drive off.

CAUTION:

Only use the AC adapter supplied with your spe-

cific LaCie drive. Do not use a power supply from

another LaCie drive or another manufacturer.

Using any other power cable or power supply may

cause damage to the device and void your war-

ranty.

Always remove the AC adapter before trans-

porting your LaCie drive. Failure to remove the

adapter may result in damage to your drive and

will void your warranty.
