Unloading a CD-ROM Disc from a Horizontally Mounted Drive
Perform the following steps to unload a disc from the CD-ROM drive:
1.
Press the eject button to eject the disc tray from the drive. If the drive is in use, you
must unmount the disc to eject the disc tray. The emergency eject feature allows you
to eject the disc tray if the normal procedure fails. See Table 2–1 earlier in this
chapter.
NOTICE:
You must unmount the disc before ejecting it from the drive. Refer
to “Unmounting a CD-ROM Disc, later in this chapter.”
2.
Wait until the drive has fully ejected the disc tray, then remove the disc from the tray
as shown in Figure 2–4. Be careful to touch only the edges of the disc.

To close the disc tray, push the front of the disc tray gently towards the drive until it
closes by itself.
