CAUTION:

Do not attempt to open the drive’s

disc tray or remove the disc while the unit is in use

and being accessed by the computer. You may in-

jure yourself and/or damage the drive and/or your

computer system. Do not transport the drive with

the disc tray open or with a DVD or CD disc in-

side. Doing so may damage the drive and/or data

stored on the disc, and will void your warranty.

Make sure the drive is off and the

power unplugged before attempting the emergency

ejection procedure.

3.4. Emergency Disc Ejection

In the event that a DVD or CD cannot be ejected

with the open/close button and the software is not con-

trolling the drive, use the emergency eject operation to

open the disc tray.

Switch off the drive and unplug the interface cable.
Insert a small metal poker, such as an unbent paper

clip, into the emergency eject hole (see Fig. 3.4) until

the poker presses against the manual eject mecha-

nism. You will feel the mechanism eject the disc tray.

Only use this method if the open/close button is

not working.
