Using the DVD/Combo/DVD Dual Drive

Depending on the model, your computer comes with a DVD, Combo, or DVD Dual drive located on the right side of the computer. This drive is usually configured as drive D.

The drive uses removable 5.25-inch silver discs, which look like standard music CDs. It is an ideal medium to use for distributing multimedia because of the huge amount of data that a disc can store.

Depending on the model, your drive is one of the following:

DVD drive can read DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) discs in addition to CDs, audio CDs, CD-R, and CD-RW discs.

Combo drive can work both as a DVD drive and CD-RW drive.

DVD Dual drive aside from working as a Combo drive, can also write to DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW discs.

NOTE: If the DVD/Combo/DVD Dual drive would be operating for more than half an hour (such as showing a DVD title), use the AC power source instead of the battery. If not, the battery may run out of power before the operation is complete.

CAUTION:

1.When inserting a disc, do not use force.

2.Make sure the disc is correctly inserted into the tray, and then close the tray.

3.Do not leave the DVD tray open. Also, avoid touching the lens in the tray with your hand. If the lens becomes dirty, the drive may malfunction.

4.Do not wipe the lens using materials with rough surface (such as paper towel). Instead, use a cotton swab to gently wipe the lens.

FDA regulations require the following statement for all laser-based devices:

“Caution, Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.”
