Loading a CD

To load a CD into a Slimline drive, do the following:
1. Press the Eject/Load button. The tray slides out of the drive.
2. Insert the CD into the loading tray.
3. Close the loading tray by pressing the Eject/Load button, or by gently
pushing the tray in.
Attention: Do not force the tray to open; do not insert foreign objects into the
CD tray. If your tray does not open when you press the Eject/Load button, see

"Ejecting a CD manually".

Ejecting a CD manually
If you press the Eject/Load button and the tray does not slide out, turn off the
computer. Straighten a large paper clip to form a tool, as shown in the
illustration. The straightened end must extend at least 45 mm (1.8 in.). Insert
the extended end into the manual-eject hole on the front of the drive (see
"Front view of the drive" on page 1-3). Push the paper clip into the hole until
the tray opens. Gently pull out the tray until you can remove the CD.
