Removing a disc with the computer on
To remove an optical disc with the computer turned on:
1 Press the eject button on the drive.
Do not press the eject button while the drive in-use
indicator light is glowing. Doing so could damage the
disc or the drive.
Also, if the disc is still spinning when you open the disc
tray, wait for it to stop spinning before you remove it.
2 Pull the tray out until it is fully open, remove the disc, and
place it in its protective cover.
3 Gently press the tray in to close it.
Removing a disc with the computer off
To remove a disc with the computer turned off:
1 Insert a slender object, such as a straightened paper
clip, into the manual eject hole.
The disc tray slides partially out of the drive.
Never use a pencil to press the manual eject button.
Pencil lead can break off inside the computer and
damage it.
2 Pull the tray out until it is fully open, remove the disc, and
place it in its protective cover.
3 Gently press the tray in to close it.
