Notes

• It may not be possible to open the disc tray while a disc is being read or written.

• Remove the disc only after the disc tray has opened fully. Otherwise, you risk damaging the 

drive or the disc.

If the disc tray fails to open for some reason, such as a malfunction of the internal 

spring-loaded mechanism or power outage, it can be opened manually.

You should attempt to eject a disc manually only as a last resort.

Malfunctions may occur if you do this too frequently.
