1. When the computer’s power is on, press the eject button to open the
disc tray slightly and then gently pull it out of the system until it is fully
opened.
Do not press the eject button while the computer is accessing the media in
the drive, instead wait for the indicator to go out before you open the disc

After the disc tray has opened slightly, you should wait for a moment to
ensure the CD/DVD/BD media has stopped spinning before you fully open
the tray.
