7.3) Ejecting a Disc
• If your new CD-RW drive is powered on press the eject button to eject the disc.
Important Note:
You cannot eject the disc if the SCSI command prohibits the eject operation while the drive is
reading data (CRW2100SZ only).
Be sure to remove the disc after it is completely ejected. (Trying to remove the disc before
it is completely ejected may cause the drive to malfunction.)
• If your new CD-RW drive is not powered on: Pressing the eject button will not eject the
disc. However, you may use the Manual Eject hole (see previous page) to eject the disc
(see below).
To eject the disc manually when it cannot be ejected in the normal way; for example, the
power is shut off inadvertently or the loading mechanism fails, please follow the steps
below:
Important Note:
This technique should be used only as a last resort. Frequent use may lead to malfunction.
1. You’ll need a pin-like object of 2 mm or less in diameter to open the tray.
A straightened paper clip makes an ideal tool.
2. Insert the pin-like tool into the manual eject hole and push gently. The spring-loaded
mechanism ejects the disc.
