To eject a CD, press the eject button on the front of the drive.
It may be necessary to unmount the CD before manually ejecting it. You can also
eject the CD by using software commands. Refer to the peripherals handbook that
corresponds with your operating environment.
If the motorized eject mechanism does not operate, insert a thin, stiff wire (such as a
paper clip) into the hole next to the eject button to manually eject the CD.
