Automatic Sleep Mode
The ZIP Drive has an automatic sleep mode designed to reduce
power consumption and prolong the life of ZIP disks. Sleep mode
automatically spins down a disk after 15 minutes of inactivity.
When the disk is accessed, it automatically spins back up again.
You can change the sleep mode time using your ZIP Tools software.
Disk Eject in Case of Power Loss
The ZIP Drive must be powered on for normal disk insertion and
removal. If you need to eject a disk during a power failure, discon-
nect the power supply from the ZIP Drive and push a straightened
paper clip into the emergency disk eject hole on the back of the
drive (see illustration).
Never force a disk into or out of the ZIP Drive.
ZIP Tools Software
Your 100MB ZIP Tools disk contains a complete package of software
tools to help you manage everything you use and create with your
ZIP Drive. The ZIP Setup or Install program automatically installs
ZIP Tools for your system.
