Siting, etc.
The CD-RW4U can be operated in either a horizontal
or a vertical orientation.
If you want to use the unit in a vertical potion, you
must first fit the supplied feet.
Peel off the backing paper of the self-adhesive feet,
and locate them in the small (1mm) shallow depres-
sions in the right side of the unit:
When using the unit in a vertical orientation, always
make sure that it is positioned on a stable surface
where it will not topple or fall. It should always be
oriented on the feet on its right side.
Take care when inserting discs into the drive in this
orientation, as they may jam in the tray mechanism.
Do not change the orientation of the unit with a CD
loaded in the tray, as this may cause jamming.
Also note that if the unit is operated in a vertical ori-
entation, you will not be able to use 8 cm (single)
