Caring for the DVD-ROM drive
To protect your DVD-ROM drive during operation, observe the following
precautions:
v Do not move the drive when it is in use. Doing so might cause data error or
damage the drive.
v Avoid exposing the drive to the following conditions:
– High humidity
– High temperature
– Excessive dust
– Mechanical vibration
– Sudden shock or dropping
– Placement on an inclined surface
– Direct sunlight
– Sudden temperature changes
v Do not insert foreign objects into the drive.
v Do not stack objects on the drive.
v Do not remove the drive cover or attempt to service the drive.
v Remove any discs from the disc drawer and make sure that the drawer is
closed before moving the drive unit.
v Keep the original packing materials. If you need to ship the drive unit to a
different location, use the original packing materials to ensure that the drive
is transported safely.
Manually ejecting a disc
If a drive becomes defective and 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.
