Manually Ejecting a Disc in an Emergency

If the disc tray fails to open for some reason, such as malfunction of the internal
spring-loaded mechanism or power outage, it can be opened manually. You
should only attempt to eject a disc manually as a last resort. Malfunctions may
occur if you do this too frequently.

n This operation requires a large paper clip (with a diameter of 2 millimeters or less).

Straighten the clip so that you can insert it into the drive’s Eject hole.

Paper clip

1 Turn the CRW8824IX drive off if it is turned on.

2 Insert a straightened paper clip (with a diameter of 2 millimeters or less)

into the Manual Eject hole on the drive’s front panel.

3 Push the clip gently into the Manual Eject hole until the spring-loaded

mechanism opens the tray. Remove the disc from the tray.
