click into place. The CD/DVD/HD DVD should lie below the top of the 
spindle, flush with the spindle base.
When the drawer is fully opened, the edge of the computer will extend 
slightly over the CD/DVD/HD DVD tray. Therefore, you will need to turn the

■ Do not touch the laser lens. Doing so could cause misalignment.
■ Do not keep foreign matter from entering the drive. Check the back 
edge of the tray to make sure it carries no debris before closing the 
drive.
