Floppy Disk Drive Guidelines
Failure to observe the following precautions can
damage both the floppy disk drive and the data
on the floppy disk:
q Insert the floppy disk into the floppy disk
drive slot label side up and the metal
shutter end first. Gently push the floppy
disk into the floppy disk drive slot until the
floppy disk clicks into place.
q To remove a floppy disk, press the eject
button until the floppy disk pops out.
q Never remove a floppy disk while the
indicator on the floppy disk drive is on.
q Never force open the access shutter on a
floppy disk.
