BEFORE USING DISKS
Handling Floppy Disks
Floppy disks contain a magnetic storage medium (much
like magnetic recording tape). Please observe the follow
ing when handling floppy disks:
— Never touch the magnetic medium inside the disk.
— Do not subject floppy disks to temperature extremes
(eg., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle). Recom
mended temperature range: 10 to 50°C.
— Do not expose floppy disks to strong magnetic fields,
such as those generated by loudspeakers.
Floppy disks contain a 'write protect' tab which can
protect the disk from accidental erasure. It is recom
mended than the tab be kept in the 'PROTECT' position
and moved to the 'WRITE' position only when you wish to
write new data onto the disk.
Write position
Protected position
All important data should be copied onto backup disk(s).
This provides a complete duplicate of the data should the
original disk(s) be lost or damaged.
The identification label should be firmly fixed to the disk.
Should the label come loose while the disk is in the drive,
it may be difficult to remove the disk.
Put the disk back into its case for storage.
