How to Use the Disc Locks
The disc tray has four disc locks that prevent the disc from falling when
the drive is set up in vertical position.
Note:
When the drive is used in horizontal position, you do not need to lock the
disc.
■
Locking and unlocking
All of the four locks are set in the unlocked position (facing outward)
when the drive is shipped from the factory. To set the lock in the locked
position, turn it with your fingers until you hear a click so that it faces
inward.
