3. Push the center of the drawer to close it. Press gently until it locks into
place.
Do not press the eject button while the computer is accessing the disc drive.
Wait for the optical disc indicator to go out before you open the drawer.
Also, if the disc is spinning when you open it, wait for it to stop before you
remove it.
■ When the drawer pops open slightly, wait a moment to make sure the
disc has stopped spinning before pulling the drawer fully open.
■ Turn off the power before you use the eject hole. If the disc is spinning
when you open the drawer, it could fly off the spindle and cause injury.
