Important to read and understand at all times

Do not disassemble

Always make sure that the disc does not have a crack before use. If the disc has a crack (especially
around the center hole), it is recommended to make a copy immediately and use the copy instead.
When a cracked disc is used continuously, the size of the crack is likely to grow and this will
eventually result in irreparable damage to the disc.

Safety Precautions
During Installation

Do not drop the drive, and protect it from severe shocks.
- It can damage the drive or cause it to malfunction.

Do not place the drive in direct sunlight.

Avoid low or high temperature environments.

Avoid high-humidity environments.

How To Use The DVD±R/RW Drive

When the On/Off light is orange, do not turn the PC off or remove the DVD±R/RW Drive as it may
cause damage in the drive.
How to Use a Horizontally Installed Drive
You can use 3.15 Inch or 4.72 Inch (8cm or 12cm)
discs.
The drive cannot read the disc properly if any part of the
disc is place outside the tray guiding line.

How to Use a Vertically Installed Drive
This drive can be installed vertically.
You can use only the 4.72 Inch (12cm) discs.
(You cannot use the 3.15 Inch (8cm) discs)
The drive cannot read the disc properly if any part of the
disc is place outside the tray guiding line.

How To Use The DVD±R/RW Drive

The DVD±R/RW Drive allows writing DVD RW discs using Nero Express and enables
"packet writing" (high-speed recording) using InCD.
The drive also allows writing DVD R discs using Nero Express.

Unauthorized copying of DVD or software titles is illegal and the individuals that make
illegal copies will be held responsible for any copyright infringement.
Using low-quality discs may lengthen the recording time or not supporting due to
reduction in double speed.

You can use the DVD±R/RW Drive to playback music CDs, CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, or DVD-ROM discs, like
a CD-ROM drive or a DVD-ROM drive. If your computer recognizes the [CD-ROM] icon designated to the
DVD±R/RW Drive as the 'E:' drive, insert a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM disc and access the 'E:' drive.
(The actual drive letter of the DVD±R/RW Drive may vary depending on the user's system environment.)

To Playback a DVD Video Disc :
You need a DVD decoder board or the DVD decoder software program.
(Provided with WinDVD Show TIME)
Use WinDVD Show TIME to change the region code of the DVD±R/RW Drive.

DVD Region Protection Coding (RPC):
The RPC feature is supported on DVD players and is used with DVD-video discs (such as movies). Currently,
the motionpicture industry has divided the worldinto different regions or zones thatcorrespond to the regional
markets intowhich the motion picture industry releasesmovies. Simply put, RPC codes are placedon movies
marketed throughout the world,based on the region of the world inwhich they are being sold. These
RPCcodes help control and prevent piratingof new movies into other motion pictureregions prior to their true
releasedates within those markets.
The SH-W162C(TS-H552C) DVD±R/RW drive supports RPCphase II. In the RPC-2 mode, the localcode can
be changed by users. RPC-2is selected by default for the SH-W162C(TS-H552C) DVD±R/RW drive.
You can change the region code up tofive times via an MPEG application.
Please contact your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative if you wish tochange the local code more than
fivetimes.

MAGIC SPEED
What is a MAGIC SPEED?
The MAGIC SPEED provides a function that user optionally chooses the disc reading speeds,
high speed (Max speed) mode and low noise (X32) mode.
The low noise mode offers the best PC environment by minimizing a driving noise.
The Magic speed not only functions to decrease a noise by reducing a reading speed but also gets a
preventive effect of a disc breakage, which could be occurred by a high speed. Its purpose is to supply
the stable PC environment to user.

Explanation of MAGIC SPEED Mode and Ways to use
Explanation of MAGIC SPEED Mode
The Maximum Speed Mode : Set up this mode when you want to read a disc by the maximum
speed which is supplied by a drive.
The Low Noise Mode : Set up this mode when you want to read a disc by a stable speed,
the low speed (X32).
The mode selected and set using the Magic Speed feature does not change when you connect
the driver to a different PC. Make sure you check the settings before use.

Caution: In case of a cracked disc, the disc would be broken if operating in the maximum speed.
Therefore, it is recommended to operate in the low noise mode or to immediately make
a copy and use it.
Ways to Use the MAGIC SPEED
The first of all, please install the Magic Speed program from Samsung's homepage.
Operate the program by clicking the right mouse button on the MAGIC SPEED Tray Icon.
Select a desired mode from a program window, and click "Setup" The reading speed of a drive
operates in a selected mode.
Close the program window by selecting "Close".
At this time, the reading speed will keep operating by the changed speed unless you would change a
mode and would end a program.
It is recommended to use a "Maximum Speed Mode" when operating a Data Copy & a Disc Copy and
to use a "Low Noise Mode" when operating a general operation.
Other Function
Method to release an automatic operation: This program automatically operates when PC is booting. If
you wish to release the automatic operation, release the selected item, Automatic Operation in the
Tray Icon menu.
