Media care

This section provides tips on protecting data stored on your CD/DVD.

Handle your media with care. The following simple precautions will

increase the lifetime of your media and protect the data stored on them:

CD/DVDs

1. Store your CD/DVD in the container they came in to protect them and

keep them clean.

2. Do not bend the CD/DVD.
3. Do not write on, apply a sticker to, or otherwise mar the surface of the

CD/DVD that contains data.

4. Hold the CD/DVD by its outside edge or the edge on the centre hole.

Fingerprints on the surface can prevent the drive from properly reading

data.

5. Do not expose to direct sunlight, extreme heat or cold. Do not place

heavy objects on your CD/DVD.

6. If your CD/DVD become dusty or dirty, wipe them with a clean dry cloth.

Wipe from the centre out, do not wipe in a circular direction around the

CD/DVD. If necessary, use a cloth dampened in water or a neutral

cleaner. Do not use benzine, thinner or similar cleaner.

Modem

This section describes how to connect and disconnect the internal modem

to and from a telephone jack.

Region selection

Telecommunication regulations vary from one region to another, so you will

need to make sure the internal modem's settings are correct for the region

in which it will be used.
To select a region, follow the steps below.
1. Click start, point to All Programs, TOSHIBA, Networking, and click

Modem Region Select.

The internal modem does not support voice functions. All data and fax

functions are supported.

In case of a lightning storm, unplug the modem cable from the

telephone jack.

Do not connect the modem to a digital telephone line. A digital line will

damage the modem.

Do not use the Country/Region Select function in the Modem setup utility

in the Control Panel if the function is available. If you change the Country/

Region in the Control Panel, the change may not take effect.
