Taking out a disc

<Method 1 >

There is a forced tray eject mode with electrical operation.
(1) Right after plugging in the power code (while “PLEASE” and “WAIT” blink alternately and it is displayed), keep pressing the

OPEN/CLOSE button of the main body.

(2) Remove the disc as the tray is ejected in a short while.
(3) The tray closes automatically at about five seconds.

<Method 2 >

When the disc cannot be removed by operating above <Method 1 >, open the front door of the main body manually and directly
press the EJECT button located in the lower right of the drive unit.

<Method 3 >

When neither <Method 1> nor <Method 2> can remove the disc, the tray can be ejected mechanically without turning the power on.  

(1) Open the front door of the main body manually.
(2) Insert a fine wire (e.g. a straightened paper clip) into the hole in the lower part of the tray of the drive unit.
(3) As the tray ejects a little, pull out the tray manually.

Exchanging the fitting

As the fitting that comes with the service drive unit cannot be used, make sure to attach a service fitting when the drive unit is ex-
changed. The fitting that is removed from the old drive unit can be attached to the new drive unit.
The fitting can be removed by pulling upwards while opening out the lower part of the fitting outwards.
