Loading CDs or DVDs
To insert a CD/DVD, press the eject button and carefully place a CD/DVD
onto the disc tray with label-side facing up (use just enough force for the disc
to click onto the tray’s spindle). Gently push the CD/DVD tray in until its lock
“clicks” and you are ready to start. The LED indicator will light up while data
is being accessed, or while an audio/video CD, or DVD, is playing. If power
is unexpectedly interrupted, insert an object such as a straightened paper clip
into the emergency tray release hole to open the tray.
Handling CDs or DVDs
Proper handling of your CDs/DVDs will prevent them from being damaged.
Please follow the advice below to make sure that the data stored on your CD-
ROMs/DVD-ROMs can be accessed. Remember to:
• Hold the CD or DVD by the edges; do not touch the surface of the disc.
• Use a clean, soft, dry cloth to remove dust or fingerprints.
• Do not write on the surface with a pen.
• Do not attach paper or other materials to the surface of the disc.
• Do not store or place the CD or DVD in high-temperature areas.
• Do not use benzene, thinner, or other cleaners to clean the CD or DVD.
• Do not bend the CD or DVD.
• Do not drop or subject the CD or DVD to shock.
CD Emergency Eject

eject a CD (e.g. due to
an unexpected power
interruption) you may
push the end of a
straightened paper clip
into the emergency
eject hole. However
please do NOT use a
sharpened pencil or
similar object that may
break and become
lodged in the hole.
