28 Using the CD-ROM Drive
If necessary, you can use the emergency eject button to open the CD-ROM drive.
To use the emergency eject button, turn the computer’s power off and insert a
small object, like an unbent paperclip, into the hole to press the button.
Do not place reflective objects in the disc slot because of
possible hazardous laser emissions.
The laser beam used in this CD-ROM drive is harmful to the
eyes. Do not attempt to disassemble the CD-ROM drive. Refer
servicing to your authorised service center.
The on-board audio hardware and software of your computer enable the computer
to play audio compact discs. If you wish to do so, you can attach external speakers
to the Headphone jack.
To play an audio compact disc:
1. Insert a compact disc into your CD-ROM drive:
a. Press the button on the CD-ROM drive, and its tray slides out.
b. Insert a CD, label side up.
c. Push the tray in to close the drive tray. The CD Player button appears
on the taskbar.
The disc begins to play.
A light on the drive tray is on when the computer plays a CD. Do not remove
a disc when this light is on.
2. To adjust the sound, press the following key combinations:
•
<Fn+F9> decreases volume.
•
<Fn+F10> increases volume.
To remove the CD:

window (Figure 14).
