3.4 Using a CD-ROM Drive
An optional CD-ROM drive installed in the modular bay of the computer provides fast
access to text, programs, graphics, sound, animation and video on a standard CD. (With
an optional MPEG PC Card installed, you can play back approximately 75 minutes of
MPEG1-compressed, full-motion video from a CD.)

3.4.1 Auto Speed/Max Speed Settings

The CD-ROM drive has a switch that selects either Auto-Speed or Max-Speed operation.
At Max Speed setting, some CDs vibrate and cause errors. In the Auto-Speed setting,
the drive can adjust the speed of the CD-ROM for optimum reading. The switch is
accessible when the CD-ROM disc tray is extended.

3.4.3 Handling CDs

Follow these guidelines to avoid damaging your CDs:
♦When removing a CD from its protective case or loading a CD into a drive, hold
the CD by its central hole and outer edge. Never touch the data surface (non-
label side).
♦To protect the CD against scratches and dirt when not in use, keep the CD in
its protective case.
♦Clean a CD with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth. Always wipe from the center to the
edge. Don’t wipe the CD in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.
♦Keep CDs away from high temperatures and direct sunlight.
