Removing a disc

Do not press the eject button while the computer is accessing the disc

drive. Wait for the optical media drive indicator to go out before you open

the drawer. Also, if the disc is spinning when you open the drawer, wait for

it to stop before you remove it.

■

When the drawer pops open slightly, wait a moment to make sure the

disc has stopped spinning before pulling the drawer fully open.

■

Turn off the power before you use the eject hole. If the disc is spinning

when you open the drawer, the disc could fly off the spindle and cause

injury.
