5.
Insert a blank Plextor-certified CD-R disc. Be sure to use only CD-R media of
the type recommended by Plextor.
If the DISC indicator blinks amber three times, the loaded disc is not a blank
CD-R disc. Remove the disc and insert a blank, Plextor-certified CD-R disc.
6.
The drive begins the diagnostic routine. Upon completion of the diagnostic, you
see the results:
If there was no problem, the disc is ejected automatically.
If there was a problem, the disc is not ejected, and you see the Busy indicator
blink green. One green blink indicates a write or read error. Two green
blinks indicate an initialization error.

If the disc was not ejected automatically, press the eject button to eject the disc.
