Emergency Eject
The emergency eject pinhole on the front of the drive allows you to manually eject
the drive tray and remove a disc from the drive in the following instances:
• supply of power to the computer is cut due to electrical power outage
• the drive malfunctions
Follow these steps to eject the drive tray using the emergency pinhole.
1. Insert the eject pin that came with the drive package. You may also use a paper
clip or any pointed rod small enough to fit into the emergency pinhole.
2. Carefully pull the tray out and remove the CD.
CAUTION! Do not force the tray open; wait until the eject pin has dislodged the tray to
avoid breaking the tray panel.
CAUTION! Use the manual method only as a last resort when the eject button does
not work. Make sure that you have turned off your computer before ejecting the drive
tray.
