Inserting an optical disc
1. Turn on the computer.
2. Press the release button 1 on the drive bezel to release the
media tray.
3. Pull out the tray 2.
4. Hold the CD or DVD by the edges to avoid touching the flat
surfaces and position the disc over the tray spindle with the
label side up.
✎
If the tray is not fully accessible, tilt the disc carefully to
position it over the spindle.
5. Gently press the disc 3 down onto the tray spindle until
the disc snaps into place.
6. Close the media tray.
✎
After you insert a disc, a short pause is normal. If you have not
selected a default media player, an AutoPlay dialog box opens.
It prompts you to select how you want to use the media
content.
