1.Switch off the drive and unplug the interface cable.

2.Insert a small metal poker, such as an unbent paper clip, into the emergency eject hole (see Fig. 3.4) until the poker presses against the manual eject mecha- nism. You will feel the mechanism eject the disc tray.

Only use this method if the open/close button is not working.

CAUTION: Make sure the drive is off and the power unplugged before attempting the emergency ejection procedure.
