Playing and removing a disc

To play a disc, do the following:
  1. With the computer on, press the eject/close button on the front of the optical drive. The tray slides out of the drive.

  2. Insert a disc into the tray. Some optical drive has a snap hub in the center of the tray. If your drive has a snap hub, support the tray with one hand and then push the center of the disc until it snaps into place.

  3. Press the eject/close button again or gently push the tray forward to close the tray. The disc player program starts automatically. For more information, refer to the help system of the disc player program.

To remove a disc from the optical drive, do the following:
  1. With the computer on, press the eject/close button on the front of the optical drive. The tray slides out of the drive.

  2. Carefully remove the disc from the tray.

  3. Press the eject/close button again or gently push the tray forward to close the tray.

Note: If the tray does not slide out of the drive when you press the eject/close button, turn off your computer. Then, insert a straightened paper clip into the emergency-eject hole adjacent to the eject/close button. Use the emergency eject only in an emergency.
