Using the DVD-ROM or Multifunction drive
RG 5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.3.2
For optimum DVD performance, it is recommended that you play
DVDs while running on AC power rather than battery power.
You use CD-ROMs to load and run software, and to access
reference material such as catalogs, as well as listen to music.
A special feature allows you to play audio CDs even when the
computer is turned off. For more information, see “CD/DVD
control buttons” in the electronic user’s guide.
DVD-ROM or Multifunction drive
Use the eject button to release the disc tray. This button
requires power to operate.
Never press the eject button or turn off the computer while the
activity light is glowing. Doing so could damage the disc or the
drive.
The manual eject button allows you to manually open the disc
tray when power to the computer and the drive is off.
Never use a pencil to press the manual eject button. Pencil lead can
break off inside the computer and damage it. Instead, use a slim
object such as a straightened paper clip.
HINT: When the computer is off and the DVD-ROM or DVD-ROM/
CD-RW drive is on, press the stop/eject control button to eject a
disc.
