To remove the diskette, make sure the drive light is off; then

press the release button. When the diskette pops out, remove

and store it properly.

Caution

Never remove a diskette or reset or turn off the computer

while the drive light is on. You could lose data. Also, be sure

to remove all diskettes before you turn off the computer.

Write-protecting Diskettes

You can write-protect a diskette to prevent its data from being

altered. When a diskette is write-protected, you can read it and

copy data from it, but you cannot store new data on it or delete

any files it contains. If you try to change data stored on a

write-protected diskette, you will see an error message.

To write-protect a diskette, turn it over so you are looking at

the underside. Slide the switch in the lower right comer toward

the outer edge of the diskette until it clicks into position,

exposing a hole.

To remove the write protection, slide the switch toward the

center of the diskette until the hole is covered.
