DVD/CD-RW

Combo Drive

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook may contain a DVD/ CD-RW combo drive. A DVD player gives you access to movie, software, and audio DVD/CDs. A CD-RW player allows you to access software or audio CDs, and to write data onto recordable CDs.

DVD/CD-RW COMBO DRIVE SOFTWARE

With the DVD/CD-RW drive and DVD/CD-RW drive software you can play DVD movies on your notebook. The DVD/CD-RW includes controls which allow you to take full advantage of the features of a DVD movie, as well as standard features such as fast forward, fast reverse, pause, etc. With the CD-RW drive, you can read audio CDs, and write data onto a recordable CD-R or CD-RW disc.

P O I N T S

Prior to using your DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive, you must install the DVD/CD-RW drive software. Refer to the applicable readme file on the Applications CD- ROM for instructions on installing you DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive software.

You should periodically check the Fujitsu Web site at www.fujitsupc.com for current updated drivers.

P O I N T

Prolonged use of the DVD/CD-RW drive, such as watching a DVD movie, will substantially reduce your battery life.

LOADING A DVD, CD, CD-R, OR CD-RW (“MEDIA”)

To load a disc into your DVD/CD-RW drive, follow these steps (Figure 4-5):

1.Push and release the eject button on the front of the DVD/CD-RW drive to open the holder tray. The tray will come out of the notebook a short distance.

2.Gently pull the tray out until a media disc can easily be placed in the tray.

C A U T I O N

There may be a protective sheet in the tray from when it was shipped; make sure it is removed before operating the drive, otherwise you may damage the drive.

3.Place the media into the tray, label side up, with the hole in the center of the disc. Snap the disc onto the raised circle in the center of the tray.

4.Gently push the holder tray back in until you hear a click.

C A U T I O N

Do not operate your DVD/CD-RW drive unless your LifeBook notebook is sitting on a flat surface. Using a drive when the system is not level may damage the drive or prevent proper operation.

P O I N T

If you have disabled the Auto Insert Notification Function, you will have to start the drive from

your desktop, since your notebook will not automati- cally recognize that media has been loaded.
