Usage Precautions
Do not place items other than discs on the tray.
Do not leave the tray in the open position or touch the lens.
Under some conditions, dust may build up on the lens, or on a disc. This may result in a
read or write malfunction.
Do not apply excessive force to the tray in the open position, doing so could damage the tray.
Do not open the drive or move the computer while the drive is being accessed.
Doing so could cause it to malfunction.
In addition, after running an application involving access to a disc, do not open the drive
or remove the disc until the application has been closed.
After the tray closes or the computer resumes operation from the standby/hibernation
modes, do not access the drive until the multimedia pocket device status indicator
goes
off. However, when conducting a background format on +RW using B’s CLiP, the media
can be removed by operating B’s CLiP even when the drive is being accessed. (
page
20)
Do not expose the drive to excessive smoke that may leave a residue, i.e. oil smoke, or
tobacco smoke. Doing so could shorten the life of the drive lens.
We recommend cleaning the drive lens with an air puffer used for camera lenses. (Do not
use any spray-type of lens cleaning products.)
Never insert foreign objects such as paper clips into the drive. Doing so could cause it to
malfunction.
Do not use any discs that have become deformed, warped, or are not completely round.
In the case of DVD-RAM, only non-cartridge discs or removable cartridge discs can be
used.
For AutoPlay CDs:
• If an AutoPlay CD does not start after the computer resumes from the standby or hiber-
nation modes, remove the disc from the drive, then reinsert the disc again after a 15
second wait.
• An AutoPlay CD may start during file access, depending on the status of the disc.

E
Handling Discs with Care:
Before using discs, carefully read through the Operating Instructions, the instructions for
handling the discs, and whatever is written on the disc packaging.
If the discs are not handled properly, they may become dirty or scratched, the writing speed
may be reduced or data may not be recorded or played back properly. Other damage may
result including drive failures.
Keep the following precautions.
Do not touch the data surface.
Keep the disc surfaces clean and free from dirt, dust and fingerprints, and do not allow
them to become scratched.
Do not write on the surface of the disc with a ballpoint pen or other writing instrument nor
paste any paper to it.
Do not drop, bend, or place heavy objects on top of discs.
Do not place or store discs in locations exposed to heat, direct sunlight, humidity or dust.
If the disc is brought from a cold into a warm environment, moisture may form on the
disc. Wipe this moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.
When discs are not actually being used, make sure to keep them inside their protective
cases or cartridges.
If the disc becomes dirty, clean it with the followings.
To remove dirt from a disc
Usage Precautions
<For read-only discs>
Wipe a disc with a dry, soft cloth from
the center toward the edges.
If the disc heavily gets dirty, wipe a disc
with a moist, soft cloth from the center toward the edges, and then wipe it again with a
dry cloth to take up remaining moisture.
<For recordable/rewritable discs>
Use the Panasonic disc cleaner to clean these discs.
Do not use a cloth, CD cleaners or any other such cleaners under any circumstances.

If the drive has not been accessed within 30 seconds, the drive motor will automatically shut
down to reduce the power consumption. When the drive is accessed once again, the power
of the drive motor is turned on. However, approximately 30 seconds are required until data
is actually read from the disc.
Power-saving Mode
Setting a Disc
After the tray closes, do not access the drive until the multimedia pocket device
status indicator
goes off.
If the vibration of the drive is excessive, check to see if the disc is inserted correctly,
and check that the disc is in good condition. If the disc is good and inserted correctly,
set [CD/DVD Drive Speed] or [CD Drive Speed] to [Low] in the Setup Utility. (This
setting does not work for the DVD disc when using CF-73E****** and CF-73J******
models.)

Information
To play DVD-Video or MPEG2 files, install the DVD playback software using “DVD
Drive Utility Disc” (included).
For information on how to install the software, refer to page 14.
When playing back movies from a disc, note that smooth playback may not be possible in
some cases.
About Regions Setting
DVD-Videos usually have a region code that is fixed according to the region where they are
sold. In order to play a DVD-Video, the region code of the player software and of the drive
must match that of the DVD-Video.
<Example>
For U.S.A. and Canada: “1”
For Europe: “2”
This drive’s region code is not set at the time of shipment from the factory. Therefore,
operations will differ depending on the first DVD-Video played.
In the case of a DVD-Video with a specific region code:
The drive and player software will automatically be set to the same region code as the
DVD-Video.
In the case of a DVD-Video with multiple region codes:
[Confirm Region] appears. Select region code of the drive and the player software, and
select [OK]. Play now begins.
([Confirm Region] may not appear for some DVD-Videos. To confirm the current region
code of the drive and the number of settings remaining, right-click on the WinDVD
screen and select [Setup] - [Region].)
NOTE
[Confirm Region] will also be displayed if a DVD-Video with one region code is
inserted into a drive for which another region code has already been set.
The region code of the drive can be set a total of five times, including the initial
setting. Proceed very carefully, because after the fourth change has been made, the
region code set last is fixed and no further changes can be made.
The user must take responsibility for any trouble that results from illegally changing
or altering the region code.
CAUTION

Using the Drive
When writing to discs
Read the instructions on the disc package carefully.
With DVD-RAM, you can write or rewrite as with the hard disk using Explorer, without
using the writing software. (DVD-RAM driver is required. Refer to page 12 on how to
install the software.)
Writing software is required to write data to a disc other than DVD-RAM.
Install “B’s Recorder” and “B’s CLiP” using “DVD Drive Utility Disc” (included).
(
page 17)
Be sure to use discs conforming to the proper write speeds. ( page 24)
If the write operation is to involve a long period of time, be sure to connect the AC
adaptor. If the battery power runs low and the power of the computer is cut, the write
operation may end in failure.
Be sure to use discs that meet the following specifications.
DVD-R for General Ver.2.0 (4.7 GB)
DVD-R for General Ver.2.0/4X-SPEED DVD-R REVISION 1.0 (4.7 GB)
DVD-R for General Ver.2.0/8X-SPEED DVD-R REVISION 3.0 (4.7 GB)
DVD-RW Ver.1.1 (4.7 GB)
DVD-RW Ver.1.1/2X-SPEED DVD-RW REVISION 1.0 (4.7 GB)
DVD-RW Ver.1.2/4X-SPEED DVD-RW REVISION 2.0 (4.7 GB)
DVD-RAM Ver.2.0 or Ver.2.1 (4.7 GB/9.4 GB)
DVD-RAM Ver.2.1/3X-SPEED DVD-RAM REVISION 1.0 (4.7 GB/9.4 GB)

+R Ver.1.0, Ver.1.1 or Ver.1.2
+R DL Ver.1.0
+RW Ver.1.1 or Ver.1.2
Depending on the disc, the quality of the write operation may not be so good. We recom-
mend using any of the following discs.

formatting will restart when the media is returned to the drive. Background format-
ting will continue until the formatting is complete.
• When carrying the computer during background formatting:
Right-click
on the taskbar, select [Eject], and remove the media.
