Review the list and use common sense. Your new PlexWriter 4/12 is a precision electromechanical device. Like the rest of your computer system, it requires reasonable care in its installation and use. Please read this manual carefully and keep it handy for easy reference. See your dealer or call Plextor's Technical Support Department should your drive require repair or service. # Do not put your computer monitor (or any other device weighing more than 30 lbs. ) on top of the PlexWriter 4/12 external drive. # Do not place your drive in direct sunlight, on heating units, or near electrical appliances that draw large amounts of current, such as a high-powered audio amplifier, microwave oven, toaster, hair dryer, etc. Keep the area around your drive clean from dust, smoke, and other contaminants. Do not allow moisture or liquids including water, cleaning fluids, or solvents to touch the drive. Thinner, benzene, or alcohol-based solvents can mar your drive's surface. To help ensure that your CD-R and CD-ROM discs remain free of dirt or other contaminants, your drive requires a disc caddy. Use only an industry standard disc caddy or the tray/caddy adapter included with your drive. Removing the cover may expose you to harmful electrical voltages or the laser beam. For your safety, entrust service to Plextor-authorized service personnel only.
