18 ASUS DVD-E616P1 User Manual
Using the Emergency Eject Pinhole
The emergency eject pinhole on the front of the drive allows you to
manually eject the drive tray and remove a disc from the drive in cases
when:
• supply of power to the computer is cut due to electrical power outage
• the drive malfunctions.
2. Carefully pull the tray out and remove the disc.
Use the manual method only as a last resort when the eject button
does not work. Make sure that you have turned off your computer
before ejecting the drive tray.
Follow these steps to eject the drive tray using the emergency pinhole.
1. Insert a paper clip or any pointed rod small enough to fit into the
emergency pinhole.
Do not force the tray open; wait until the eject pin has dislodged the
tray to avoid breaking the tray panel.
