•

means the Drawer locking mechanism has been triggered, and the Drawer has been pushed out far
enough that it can be removed. From this position, the auto close feature can close the Drawer and relock it if there is
no further user input.
•
Removed
means from the unlocked position, physically pulling the Drawer out further. At this point the auto close
feature will no longer work, and the Drawer can be fully removed from the Cassette if desired.
