General Use
• During operation, avoid exposing your CD/DVD writer to extreme temperatures above
40℃or below 5℃.
• Never drop your CD/DVD Writer.
• Only use the CD/DVD Writer face-up, on a stable flat surface
• Do not allow your CD/DVD Writer to come in contact with water or any other liquids.
3
• Do not use a damp/wet cloth to wipe or clean the exterior case.
• Never look directly into the laser lens, as it can be harmful to your eyes.
• Do not attempt to open the outer case (doing so will void your product warranty).
• Do not store your CD/DVD Writer in any of the following environments:
o Direct sunlight
o Next to an air conditioner, electric heater or other heat sources
o In a closed car that is in direct sunlight
o In an area with strong magnetic fields or excessive vibration
• Never touch the laser lens.
Writing Data
• Do not touch, pick up, or move the CD/DVD Writer during the write process. This can
damage the device and will cause errors on the disc being written
• Transcend does not take any responsibility for data loss or damage resulting from
use of this product. If using this product to backup data, we strongly advise using
high-quality recordable media, and that you fully test and verify the contents of all written
discs. It is also a good idea to regularly backup important data to a different computer or
other storage medium.
• To ensure High-Speed USB 2.0 data transfer rates when using your CD/DVD Writer with
a computer, please check that the computer has the relevant USB drivers. If you are
unsure about how to check this, please consult the computer or motherboard User’s
Manual for USB driver information.
Power
• The CD/DVD Writer is powered directly from your computer’s USB port. However, the
USB ports of certain computers may not supply enough power to use the CD/DVD Writer
when using a single USB port. Please make sure to connect both large connector ends
of the provided USB Cable to the USB ports on your computer. This will ensure the
CD/DVD Writer receives adequate power for stable operation.
4
• Only use the USB cable that came with the CD/DVD Writer to connect it to a computer,
and always ensure that the cable is in good condition. NEVER use a cable that is frayed
or damaged.
• Ensure nothing is resting on the USB cable and that the cable is not located where it can
be tripped over or stepped on.
• If you have connected all ends of the USB cable and still have power-related problems
while reading / writing data, we recommend that you purchase a Transcend USB Power
Adapter (TS-PA2A) to provide the power necessary to operate the CD/DVD Writer.
Reminders
Always follow the procedures in the “Disconnecting from a Computer” section to remove the
CD/DVD Writer from your computer.
The second USB connector provides additional power for the
CD/DVD Writer. Please make sure to connect both USB
connectors to your computer’s USB ports.
