1. Continuously monitors the signal
level during recording and adjusts the laser power to compensate when the disc
is dirty, insuring a flat signal.
Important Precautions
WARNING: Only drives (such as the NEC ND-6100A) bearing the
logo "DVD+ReWritable" can write or erase DVD+RW media and
bearing the logo "Compact Disc ReWritable Ultra Speed" can write
or erase Ultra and High-Speed CD-RW media. Ultra and High Speed CD-RW
Media may be recognized by the same "Compact Disc ReWritable Ultra
and High Speed" logo on the disc label or packaging material, or by
the fact that it lists recording speeds of "10X to 24X" and "4X to
10X".
Attempted writes to Ultra and High Speed CD-RW media using CD-RW drives
NOT bearing the logo "Compact Disc Rewritable Ultra and High
Speed" may result in data loss.
WARNING: Avoid placing the drive in a location subject to
high humidity
high temperature
excessive dust
mechanical vibration
direct sunlight
WARNING:
Do not suddenly move the drive from a cold environment to a warm
environment. Condensation may occur within the drive, causing
temporary abnormal operation.
Remove any disc from the drive prior to moving the drive. Failure to
do so may result in damaged discs and data loss.
Prevent foreign objects, such as liquids or metal, from entering the
drive.
Do not interrupt the electric power while the drive is operating.
WARNING: Please backup (copy) all important data as
protection against data loss.
WARNING: Don't pull out or push in the disc tray
forcibly. This might cause damage to the loading section of the drive.
WARNING: Be careful to connect power with the proper
polarity. Connecting the wrong way may damage the system (and voids the
warranty). Usually the power connector can only be attached one way.
WARNING: Do not connect or disconnect cables when the
power is on, as this could cause a short circuit and damage the system.
Always turn the power OFF when connecting or disconnecting cables.
WARNING: The discs in this unit operate at a very
high speed. DO NOT use damaged, cracked or warped discs. The drive's
optical unit may be damaged if they break. DO NOT use non-standard discs.
Non-standard discs may not play or store data properly.
WARNING: When using CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R, or DVD+RW
discs, don't attach any stickers or labels to the discs. Using discs with
labels attached not only causes read and write errors, but data on the
disc may be lost due to damage to the disc itself.
