Panasonic VDR-M30PP Service Manual page 52

Connect the AC adapter/charger or charged battery pack, making sure the ACCESS/PC indicator
turns off (after the disc rotation stops and the sound showing that the disc lock has been released is
heard), and then press the DISC EJECT button again.
Even with normal product, the disc cannot be removed while the ACCESS/PC indicator is lit or
blinking.
Information:
Connect the charged battery pack or the AC adapter/charger (power supply) before pressing the
DISC EJECT button.
With conventional DVD video camera/recorders, the DISC EJECT button will work even when no
power supply is connected. However, with the VDR-M30, the DISC EJECT button will not work
without a power supply connected.
Prohibition
After the above check, disconnect the AC adapter/charger of battery from the VDR-M30.
The VDR-M30 has a built-in laser emitter block. Do not look into it: If Laser beam strikes your eye,
it could cause serious damage.
