Making Connections Using OmniBook Plug-In Modules To insert and eject a Zip disk C A U T I O N Always turn on power to the OmniBook before inserting a Zip disk. When you insert a Zip disk, the green busy light will flash momentarily and go out. (If the light continues to blink slowly, push the disk eject button to eject the Zip disk, then insert it again.) Do not insert or remove a Zip disk while the OmniBook is actively reading data. Otherwise, the OmniBook could stop responding and you could lose data. • To insert the Zip disk, hold the disk with its face up and then gently insert it into the Zip drive.
• To remove the Zip disk, gently press the eject button on the front of the Zip disk drive. Do not use force. The green busy light blinks as the disk spins down. The drive takes a few seconds to eject the disk. The Zip drive automatically ejects the disk when you shut down your OmniBook. Store all your Zip disks in the protective case when not in use. To eject a Zip disk manually The OmniBook must be on for normal disk ejection from the Zip drive. If you need to remove a Zip disk from the drive when power is off, carefully push a straightened paper clip into the emergency eject hole located on the eject button.
C A U T I O N Use the manual disk eject procedure only when OmniBook power is off. Do not try to forcibly remove a Zip disk from the drive. If the disk does not eject immediately, repeat the manual disk eject procedure. 5-8
