USING THE MEDIA PLAYER SOFTWARE Depending upon its configuration, your system may not have the media player software pre-installed. If it is not installed, reference the documentation that accompanies the media application. (a) (b) (c) (d) Figure 4-3. Loading/Ejecting Media REMOVING MEDIA 1. Push and release the eject button on the front of the optical drive. This will stop the drive and the holder tray will come out of the LifeBook notebook a short distance. 2. Gently pull the tray out until the disc can easily be removed from the tray. 3. Carefully remove the media disc from the holder tray. 4. Gently push the holder tray back in until you hear a click. EMERGENCY MEDIA TRAY RELEASE If for some reason the eject button fails, you can open the media tray with a paper clip inserted into the eject hole in the far right side of the front of the tray.
