Manually ejecting a disc

In case of a power failure, and the drive will not allow the disc to eject, turn
off the computer, and straighten a large paper clip to form a tool. The
straightened end must extend at least 45 mm (1.8 in.). Insert the extended end
into the emergency eject hole on the front of the drive (see “Front view of the
drive” on page 1-3). Push the paper clip until the tray opens. Gently pull out
the tray until you can remove the disc.
