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.
