Using the optical drive 43 Inserting an optical disc (slot-type drive) (Available on certain models) To insert an optical disc into the drive: 1 Hold the disc by its edges and check that it is clean and free of dust. Handle DVDs and CDs carefully, making contact only with the center hole and edge. Do not touch the surface of the disc. Do not stack discs. If you incorrectly handle the discs, you could lose data. If the disc is dusty, clean it. See "Caring for optical discs" in the electronic user's guide for more information. 2 With the label facing up, carefully place the disc partially into the slot until the disc stops or the drive starts pulling the disc in. (Sample Illustration) Positioning the disc in the drive Use only standard (12 cm) CD or DVD Discs. Any other size or shape disc cannot be removed from this slot and may damage the system. Removing a disc (slot-type drive) Do not press the eject button or turn off the computer while the drive in-use indicator light is glowing. Doing so could damage the disk or the drive. The computer must be powered on to eject a disc. 1 Locate and press the eject button. The disc partially ejects from the slot. 2 Grasp the disc and remove it from the computer, then place the disc in its protective cover.
