Inserting a CD or DVD
Important
Some music CDs have copy protection
software. You may not be able to play
these CDs on your computer.
To insert a CD or DVD:
1
Press the eject button on the CD or DVD drive.
2
Place the disc in the tray on the spindle so that the label is up or to the
right, depending on your configuration.
Important
When you place a single-sided disc in the
tray, make sure that the label side is up or
to the right. If the disc has two playable
sides, place the disc so the name of the
side you want to play is up or to the right.
3
Press the eject button to close the tray.
