Notes on Using the VU-V101
Never remove the VU-V101 or switch off your PC during VU-V101 access
(recording, erasing or playback) as this can damage the SmartMedia.
The VU-V101 is a precision electronic device. Do not bend or drop the VU-V101 or
subject it to strong impacts.
To protect the VU-V101 and the floppy disk drive mechanism, remove the VU-
V101 from the floppy disk drive after use and store it in a safe place.
To avoid soiling the contact surfaces in the floppy disk drive heads, incorrect
functioning of the operation switch or other damage, store the VU-V101 in its case
when it is not being used.
Always keep the VU-V101 in its special storage case when you are carrying or
storing the adapter. Do not carry it in places such as your trouser pocket as this
can subject the adapter to excessive force and damage it when you sit down.
Avoid using or storing the VU-V101 in locations subject to strong static electricity
or electrical noise.
Do not use or store the VU-V101 in locations subject to high temperatures and
humidity or in corrosive environments.

This could result in the loss or corruption of the data stored on the SmartMedia.
Do not allow dirt or foreign objects to get into the SmartMedia slot.
Do not directly touch or allow metal objects to touch the SmartMedia terminals
(contact surfaces) as this could result in a discharge of static electricity and the

Do not switch off your personal computer while data is being written to or read
from a SmartMedia card as this could result in the loss or corruption of the data
stored on the SmartMedia.
