Close the tray by pushing it gently.
To play DVD-ROMs
To achieve optimum performance when playing DVD-ROMs, you should 
use the following recommendations: Your computer should not 
be connected to the port replicator while playing DVD movies or using 
DVD applications. Close any open applications before playing a DVD 
movie. The DVD player automatically adjusts the screen properties when 
you play a DVD movie. Depending on the display setup properties you 
have selected, you may need to use the Fn + F command to expand the 
movie to full-screen size.
Be sure to seat the disc firmly over the hub fingers. If you do not seat the disc firmly, you could 
damage your DVD-ROM drive and you may not be able to open the tray.
When you finish using a disc, wait until the LED indicator light turns off, then press the Eject 
button to remove the disc.
When the computer is in System Suspend or System Hibernation mode, you cannot remove a 
disc. See “Controlling Power Management” in the online document Customizing Your VAIO

Notebook Computer for more information about System Suspend and System Hibernation 
modes.
If the disc does not come out when you press the Eject button, turn off the computer and 
insert a thin, pointed object into the manual eject hole.
When playing DVD movies on battery power, set the power management profile to DVD. With 
other profiles, the movies are choppy. As an alternative, you can set the power-management 
profile to Automatic Profile Selection, which will cause the DVD profile to be selected 
automatically whenever you insert a DVD. See “Controlling Power Management” in the 
online document Customizing Your VAIO

the power-management profile.
