Labeling Diskettes Before using a diskette, label it so that you can identify the data stored on it. Labels usually come in the package with the diskettes. Diskette labels can become a problem if you do not apply them correctly. Loose edges or an excessive buildup of labels can prevent the diskette from being inserted or ejected. To prevent this problem, take the following precautions: Remove an old label before you apply a new one. Apply labels carefully to ensure that all edges are secure. Apply labels only to the front of diskettes. Do not place a label where it interferes with the protective slide or covers an opening in the protective diskette case. Inserting and Removing Diskettes To insert a 3.5-inch diskette, hold the diskette with the label facing up and insert the end with the protective slide first. Push the diskette into the diskette drive until the diskette clicks into place. To remove the diskette, press the eject button and slide the diskette out of the drive. Do not remove the diskette while the in-use light is on. Diskette-Drive In-Use Light Diskette Eject Button Storage Devices 31
