Manual eject hole—Use if you need to release the disc tray
when the power is off. Use a straightened paper clip or other
narrow object to press the manual eject button located inside
the hole.

Inserting a compact disc

To insert a compact disc into the drive:
1 Make sure the computer is turned on. The drive will not
open if the computer's power is off.
2 Make sure the drive's in-use indicator light is off.
3 Press the drive's eject button.
The disc tray slides partially out of the drive (about 1 inch).
Do not press the eject button or turn off the computer while the
drive in-use indicator light is glowing. Doing so could damage
the disc or the drive.
When the disc tray is open, be careful not to touch the lens or
the area around it. Doing so could cause the drive to
malfunction.
Never use a pencil to press the manual eject button. Pencil
lead can break off inside the computer and damage it.
