Using the Optical Disc Drive

NOTICE: Do not use non-standard-size or shape discs (including mini-CDs and mini‑DVDs) or you will damage the drive.

Place the disc in the center of the disc slot, with the label facing upwards and gently push the disc into the slot. The drive will automatically pull the disc in and begin reading its content.

To eject a disc from the drive, gently touch the eject control. The control will flash to confirm a few seconds before ejecting the disc.
