Using a CD or DVD
To insert a CD or DVD:
1
Press the eject button on the CD or DVD drive. After the
tray opens slightly, pull the disc tray completely open.
2
Place the disc in the tray with the label facing up, then
press down carefully on the disc until it snaps into place.
3
Push the tray in until it is closed.
Using the memory card reader
You can use memory cards to transfer pictures from a digital
camera to your convertible notebook. You can also use the
memory card reader to transfer data between your
convertible notebook and a device that uses memory cards,
such as a PDA, MP3 player, or cellular telephone.
Important
Prerecorded DVD discs and drives contain regional codes that help
control DVD title exports and help reduce illegal disc distribution. To be able to
play a prerecorded DVD, the disc’s regional code and your DVD drive’s regional
code must match.
The regional code on your DVD drive is determined by your convertible
notebook’s delivery address. The regional code for the United States and Canada
is 1. The regional code for Mexico is 4. Your DVD drive’s regional code must
match the regional code of the disc. The regional code for the disc is on the
disc, disc documentation, or packaging.
Important
When you place a single-sided disc in the tray, make sure that the label
side is facing up. If the disc has two playable sides, place the disc so the name
of the side you want to play is facing up.
Tip
