Caution
Drives are sensitive to vibrations and shock. Any vibrations occurring during operation
can lead to loss of data or damage to the drive.
If you intend transporting the unit, switch it off, and wait until the drive has come to
rest (about 20 seconds) before you move it.
2.5.3 CD ROM Drive
Optionally, the CD ROM drive is installed in the front drive holder. The CD ROM
drive enables you to read CD-ROM, CD-RW and video.
Operation
When pressing the open/close button the CD drawer is ejected with a short delay.
Insert the CD in the drawer, writing up. The CD drawer is automatically drawn in
when slightly pushing it or pressing the open/close button.
Quickly press the eject button for the drawer to come out. Now you can remove
the CD.
Emergency Eject
When the device is switched off, the disk can be forced out by using a pin (for
example, an opened up paper clip).
Notice
After the drawer has been closed, the CD is tested and the access LED on the
drive starts to flash:
– If the access LED flashes continually, the CD is faulty but can still be read,
– If the access LED flashes several times and then remains lit, the CD you
have inserted is defective and cannot be read.
– normally the access LED is lit when reading the CD.
Caution
CD ROM drives are sensitive to vibrations and shock. Any vibrations occuring
during operation can lead to damage to the drive or CD.
