Learning the Basics Backing up your work 75 Taking care of diskettes To protect the data stored on your diskettes: ❖ Store your diskettes in their boxes or other containers to protect them and keep them clean. ❖ Keep diskettes at room temperature and avoid exposing them to direct sunlight. Otherwise data may be lost. ❖ Keep your diskettes away from sources of magnetism, such as speakers and radios, since these can destroy data. ❖ Clean dirty diskettes with a soft cloth moistened in water. Do not use cleaning fluids. Avoid: ❖ Sliding back the protective metal cover. ❖ Touching the magnetic surface of a diskette. Fingerprints can prevent the drive from reading the data held on a diskette. ❖ Twisting or bending a diskette. ❖ Placing heavy objects on your diskettes. ❖ Eating, smoking or using erasers near your diskettes.
