General safety guidelines

Always observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury and property

damage.

Service

Do not attempt to service a product yourself unless instructed to do so by the

Customer Support Center. Use only a service provider who is approved to repair

your particular product.

Note: Some parts can be upgraded or replaced by the customer. These parts are

referred to as Customer Replaceable Units, or CRUs. Lenovo expressly

identifies CRUs as such, and provides documentation with instructions

when it is appropriate for customers to replace those parts. You must closely

follow all instructions when performing such replacements. Always make

sure that the power is turned off and that the product is unplugged from

any power source before you attempt the replacement. If you have any

questions or concerns, contact the Customer Support Center.

Power cords and power adapters

Use only the power cords and power adapters supplied by the product

manufacturer.

Never wrap a power cord around the power adapter or other object. Doing so can

stress the cord in ways that can cause the cord to fray, crack or crimp. This can

present a safety hazard.

Always route power cords so that they will not be walked on, tripped over, or

pinched by objects.

Protect the cord and power adapters from liquids. For instance, do not leave your

cord or power adapter near sinks, tubs, toilets, or on floors that are cleaned with

liquid cleansers. Liquids can cause a short circuit, particularly if the cord or power

adapter has been stressed by misuse. Liquids can also cause gradual corrosion of

the power cord terminals and/or the connector terminals on the adapter which can

eventually result in overheating.

Always connect power cords and signal cables in the correct order and ensure that

all power cord connectors are securely and completely plugged into receptacles.

Do not use any power adapter that shows corrosion at the ac input pins and/or

shows signs of overheating (such as deformed plastic) at the ac input or anywhere

on the power adapter.

Do not use any power cords where the electrical contacts on either end show signs

of corrosion or overheating or where the power cord appears to have been

damaged in any way.

Extension cords and related devices

Ensure that extension cords, surge protectors, uninterruptible power supplies, and

power strips that you use are rated to handle the electrical requirements of the

product. Never overload these devices. If power strips are used, the load should

not exceed the power strip input rating. Consult an electrician for more

information if you have questions about power loads, power requirements, and

input ratings.

Plugs and outlets

If a receptacle (power outlet) that you intend to use with your computer

equipment appears to be damaged or corroded, do not use the outlet until it is

replaced by a qualified electrician.

Do not bend or modify the plug. If the plug is damaged, contact the manufacturer

to obtain a replacement.

Some products are equipped with a three-pronged plug. This plug fits only into a

grounded electrical outlet. This is a safety feature. Do not defeat this safety feature

by trying to insert it into a non-grounded outlet. If you cannot insert the plug into

the outlet, contact an electrician for an approved outlet adapter or to replace the

outlet with one that enables this safety feature. Never overload an electrical outlet.

The overall system load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.

Consult an electrician for more information if you have questions about power

loads and branch circuit ratings.

Be sure that the power outlet you are using is properly wired, easily accessible,

and located close to the equipment. Do not fully extend power cords in a way that

will stress the cords.

Connect and disconnect the equipment from the electrical outlet carefully

Batteries

All personal computers manufactured by Lenovo contain a non-rechargeable coin

cell battery to provide power to the system clock. In addition many mobile

products such as ThinkPad notebook PCs utilize a rechargeable battery pack to

provide system power when in portable mode. Batteries supplied by Lenovo for

use with your product have been tested for compatibility and should only be

replaced with Lenovo approved parts.

Never attempt to open or service any battery. Do not crush, puncture, or incinerate

batteries or short circuit the metal contacts. Do not expose the battery to water or

other liquids. Only recharge the battery pack strictly according to instructions

included in the product documentation.

Battery abuse or mishandling can cause the battery to overheat, which can cause

gasses or flame to “vent” from the battery pack or coin cell. If your battery is

damaged, or if you notice any discharge from your battery or the buildup of

foreign materials on the battery leads, stop using the battery and obtain a

replacement from the battery manufacturer.

Batteries can degrade when they are left unused for long periods of time. For some

rechargeable batteries (particularly Lithium Ion batteries), leaving a battery unused

in a discharged state could increase the risk of a battery short circuit, which could

viii ThinkPad CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo II Ultrabay Slim Drive: User’s Guide

shorten the life of the battery and can also pose a safety hazard. Do not let

rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries completely discharge or store these batteries in a

discharged state.

Heat and product ventilation

Computers generate heat when turned on and when batteries are charging.

Notebook PCs can generate a significant amount of heat due to their compact size.

Always follow these basic precautions:

v Do not leave the base of your computer in contact with your lap or any part of

your body for an extended period when the computer is functioning or when

the battery is charging. Your computer produces some heat during normal

operation. Extended contact with the body could cause discomfort or, potentially,

a skin burn.

v Do not operate your computer or charge the battery near flammable materials or

in explosive environments.

v Ventilation slots, fans and/or heat sinks are provided with the product for safety,

comfort, and reliable operation. These features might inadvertently become

blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, carpet, or other flexible surface.

Never block, cover or disable these features.

CD and DVD drive safety

CD and DVD drives spin discs at a high speed. If a CD or DVD is cracked or

otherwise physically damaged, it is possible for the disc to break apart or even

shatter when the CD drive is in use. To protect against possible injury due to this

situation, and to reduce the risk of damage to your machine, do the following:

v Always store CD/DVD discs in their original packaging

v Always store CD/DVD discs out of direct sunlight and away from direct heat

sources

v Remove CD/DVD discs from the computer when not in use

v Do not bend or flex CD/DVD discs, or force them into the computer or their

packaging

v Check CD/DVD discs for cracks before each use. Do not use cracked or

damaged discs

Software description

Your CD-RW & DVD-ROM Software and User’s Guide CD contains the following

software:

v Drive Letter Access (DLA)

This software enables you to write directly to CD-RW or CD-R media using the

drive letter like you would if you were writing to a diskette. All disc format

types can be formatted by DLA. With DLA, you an drag-and-drop files, create

new directories, or save files from any application directly to your

CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo II drive.

v UDF reader

This software enables you to install software for reading DVD-RAM, DVD-RW,

and CD-RW media on computers with DVD drives. It also allows you to read

DLA-created discs on systems without DLA installed.

v RecordNow

RecordNow is disc mastering software that allows you to create your own music

or data discs from files on your computer, or from other disc media such as CDs

or DVDs. Music discs created with RecordNow will play on any CD player,

whether it’s at home, in your car, or through your computer’s CD-ROM.

RecordNow also makes it easy to create data discs that can be read on any

appropriate CD or DVD disc reader.

Note: Some DVD players cannot read CD-R media. Refer to the documentation

that accompanied your drive for information on supported media.

RecordNow guides you, step-by-step, through the recording process with simple

Wizards and an intuitive user interface.

Using RecordNow you can create:

– Exact copies of existing discs - The Exact Copy feature makes a duplicate of

your master disc, transferring the disc layout of the original disc to your

CD-R or CD-RW media.

– Discs of archived data from your hard drive - The Make a Data Disc feature

is used to store electronic data, such as the files and applications that reside

on your computer’s hard drive. Unlike music discs, data discs are used to

store files that are readable only by a computer, and cannot be played on

your home or car stereo-even if audio files are on the disc.

– Music compilations from WAV, MP3, or WMA files, or from existing music

discs - The Make a Music Disc feature creates custom music discs from files

on your hard drive or your existing music discs. The CD music database

feature can automatically tag your files with track information to help you

sort through your collection.

Note: Please reference the RecordNow On-line Help, for more information on

how to Make an Exact copy, Create a Data Disc, or to Create an Audio

disc with RecordNow. Please also see “Using the RecordNow software”

on page 2-6 for more information.

To start RecordNow, complete the following procedure:

2. Click Programs.

3. Click RecordNow.
