■ When the disc tray is fully opened, the edge of the computer will extend
slightly over the CD/DVD tray. Therefore, you will need to turn the
CD/DVD at an angle when you place it in the disc tray. After seating the
CD/DVD, however, make sure it lies flat.
■ Gently support the disc tray from below with your free hand when
inserting or removing CD/DVDs from the optical disc drive.
■ Do not touch the laser lens or any portion of its surrounding casing as
this could cause misalignment.
■ Prevent foreign objects from entering the drive. Check the surface of
the disc tray, especially the area behind the front edge of the disc tray,
to make sure there are no such objects before closing the drive.
