Manipulation and Physical Design:

  1. Eject media a sufficient distance for grasping
  2. Make latches operable with one hand
  3. Minimize force required (that is, less than 2 Newtons) for insertion and retrieval of media
  4. Provide error flags for misinserted media
  5. Ensure that devices do not generate electromagnetic fields that would affect users with hearing aids
  6. Have low noise operation
  7. Have no hard edges or corners
  8. Have no material creating allergies
