Operating Basics

6.If your discs become dusty or dirty, wipe them with a clean dry cloth. Wipe from the center out, do not wipe in a circular direction around the disc. If necessary, use a cloth dampened in water or a neutral cleaner. Do not use benzine, thinner or similar cleaner.

Diskettes

1.Store your diskettes in the container they came in to protect them and keep them clean. If a diskette is dirty, do not use cleaning fluid. Clean it with a soft damp cloth.

2.Do not slide back the diskette's protective metal covering or touch the diskette's magnetic surface. Fingerprints may prevent the diskette drive from reading data from the diskette.

3.Data may be lost if the diskette is twisted, bent, or exposed to direct sunlight, or extreme heat or cold.

4.Do not place heavy objects on your diskettes.

5.Do not eat, smoke, or use erasers near your diskettes. Foreign particles inside the diskette's jacket can damage the magnetic surface.

6.Magnetic energy can destroy data on diskettes. Keep your diskettes away from speakers, radios, television sets and other sources of magnetic fields.
