Ejecting A Disc In An Emergency - Yamaha CRW2100S - CRW - CD-RW Drive Owner's Manual

n It may not be possible to eject the disc tray while a disc is being read or in other
situations, depending on the SCSI command.
n Only remove the disc after the disc tray has opened fully. Otherwise, you risk
damaging the drive or the disc.

Ejecting a Disc in an Emergency

If the disc tray fails to open for some reason, such as a power outage, you can
open it manually.
You should attempt to eject a disc manually only as a last resort.
Malfunctions may occur if you do this too frequently.
1 Power down the computer.
2 Find a pin-like tool with a diameter of 2mm or less to fit through the
Manual Eject hole on the drive's front panel.
n A straightened large paper clip is ideal for this purpose.
3 Push the tool gently into the Manual Eject hole until the spring-
loaded mechanism ejects the tray and disc.
