Media Care and Handling
To maintain maximum reliability, the operator should take the time to inspect each media cartridge before use, and whenever it is removed.
CAUTION
Always condition the unopened media to the normal operating temperature of the room before using.
Improper handling or an inappropriate environment can damage the media. To ensure continued reliability:
•When media is loaded, or when handling media, ensure that the cartridge case is clean. Dirty media cartridges can cause failures in loading or loss of data. If a cartridge case is dirty, wipe with a lint free cloth.
•Do not carry media loosely (for example, in a box or basket). Media should be carefully and securely packed for transport.
•Do not load damaged media into a drive. Damaged media can interfere with read/write reliability.
•Never touch the disk. Opening the cartridge door and touching the disk may interfere with read/ write reliability.
•Do not expose the media to moisture or direct sunlight.
•Do not expose the media to excessive heat (keep within 5 to 55 °C).
