ABSTRACT:
Preceding to the reading out of the recording information of the optical disk by the pick-up, the height of the foreign material existing at the light converging position on the information reading surface is detected by the detector, and when the height of the foreign material is higher than the floating height h of the SIL, the magnetic field is generated by applying the control current corresponding to the height of the foreign material to the coil as the magnetic field generator at the timing before the foreign material is moved to the information reading position of the pick-up by the rotation of the optical disk. Then, when the magnetic field is provided to the magnetic substance fixedly holding the SIL which is floating, the movement operation to separate the SIL to the higher position than the height of the foreign material from the information reading surface together with the magnetic substance, is conducted.
