Removing an optical disc
Eject the tray and gently pry the edge of the disc
upwards at an angle to remove the disc from the
hub.

Using the Optical Drive

Optical discs and equipment must be handled with care because of the precise mechanics involved. Keep in
mind the important safety instructions form your CD suppliers. Unlike desktop optical drives, the Notebook PC
uses a hub to hold the CD in place regardless of the angle. When inserting a CD, it is important that the CD be
pressed onto the center hub or else the optical drive tray will scratch the CD.
Emergency eject
The emergency eject is located in a hole on the
optical drive and is used to eject the optical drive
tray in case the electronic eject does not work. Do
not use the emergency eject in place of the
electronic eject. Note : Make sure not to stab the
activity indicator located in the same area.
