Important notes

Backing Keyboard BK-5

• When connecting a USB memory, position it horizontally with the

BK-5’s USB MEMORY port and insert it without using excessive
force. The USB MEMORY port may be damaged if you use excessive
force when inserting a USB memory.

• Do not insert anything other than a USB memory (e.g., wire, coins,

other types of device) into the USB MEMORY port. Doing so will
damage the BK-5’s USB MEMORY port.

• Never connect your USB memory to the BK-5 via a USB hub.

• Do not connect or disconnect a USB drive while it is being read

from, or written to (i.e., while the USB flash access indicator
blinks).

Handling CDs

• Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside (encoded sur-

face) of the disc. Damaged or dirty CD discs may not be read prop-
erly. Keep your discs clean using a commercially available CD
cleaner.
