Removing Discs - Toshiba Tecra M2 User Manual

Operating Basics
When the drawer is fully opened, the edge of the computer will extend
slightly over the CD/DVD tray. Therefore, you will need to turn the CD/DVD
at an angle when you place it in the tray. After seating the CD/DVD,
however, make sure it lies flat, as shown in figure 4-9.
Do not touch the laser lens. Doing so could cause misalignment.
Do not keep foreign matter from entering the drive. Check the back
edge of the tray to make sure it carries no debris before closing the
drive.
4. Press gently at the center of the CD/DVD until you feel it click into
place. The CD/DVD should lie below the top of the spindle, flush with
the spindle base.
5. Push the center of the drawer to close it. Press gently until it locks into
place.
If the CD/DVD is not seated properly when the drawer is closed, the CD/
DVD might be damaged. Also, the drawer might not open fully when you
press the eject button.

Removing discs

To remove the CD/DVD, follow the steps below and refer to figure 4-11.
Do not press the eject button while the computer is accessing the DVD-
ROM drive. Wait for the Slim Select Bay indicator to go out before you
open the drawer. Also, if the CD/DVD is spinning when you open the
drawer, wait for it to stop before you remove it
1. To pop the drawer partially open, press the eject button. Gently pull the
drawer out until it is fully opened.
When the drawer pops open slightly, wait a moment to make sure the
CD/DVD has stopped spinning before pulling the drawer fully open.
Turn off the power before you use the eject hole. If the CD/DVD is
spinning when you open the drawer, the CD/DVD could fly off the
spindle and cause injury.
