Using the Floppy Disk Drive (WK-3500 Only)

Floppy Disk Drive Features

The WK-3500 comes with a built-in disk drive, which provides you with the capabilities described below.

Floppy Diskette Precautions

IMPORTANT!

•Avoid the following locations when storing and using diskettes. Any of the conditions noted below can cause data stored on the diskette to become corrupted.

•Near TVs, on top of audio equipment, or in any area exposed to magnetism. Take special care to keep diskettes away from any source of magnetism.

•Areas exposed to direct sunlight, or subject to high humidity or temperature extremes.

•Failure to observe any of the following precautions can cause data stored on the diskette to become corrupted.

•Never try to take a diskette apart.

•Never open the shutter of the diskette or touch the film inside with your fingers.

•Never bend a diskette or otherwise subject it to rough handling.

•Affix labels in the spaces provided only, and do not affix labels on top of previous ones.

•Do not eject the diskette from the drive while the access lamp is lit or flashing or turn off keyboard power with a diskette in the drive. Doing either can cause data on the diskette to become corrupted and can even cause malfunction of the disk drive.

•Never insert any foreign objects into the disk drive. Doing so can cause it to malfunction.

•The disk drive uses a magnetic head. A dirty head cannot read data from a diskette properly and can corrupt existing data on the diskette. To avoid this, be sure to use a commercially available head cleaning diskette to periodically clean the head.
