LOADING AND REMOVING DISCS

Label
surface up
Insert straight
1 Set the drive unit's front panel POWER switch to ON.
NOTE
• Do not attempt to forcibly insert a disc when the power is
off, since damage may occur to the disc or loading
mechanism.
2 Insert a disc.
• Insert the disc flat with the label surface upright.
• Only one disc can be loaded at a time. Do not attempt to
insert two discs together, or to insert a second disc when
one is already playing.
• When inserting a disc, do not apply excessive force, or so
much pressure that the disc bends. Also, when the
mechanism is pulling in a disc or ejecting a disc, do not
apply opposing pressure so as to defeat the mechanism's
purpose. Any of these actions may damage the disc or
mechanism.
3 To remove a currently playing disc, first press the play/pause
() button to stop the playback, then press the EJECT ()
button. Alternately, when a cue point has been set, during
play press the CUE button (to cause "back cue") and then
press the EJECT () button.
Disc rotation will stop and the disc will be ejected from the slot.
NOTE
• Do not attempt to reinsert a disc while the eject procedure
is still operating and the [EJECT] indicator is lighted. If a
disc is pressed back in while it is still being ejected (the
[EJECT] indicator is lighted), the mechanism may stop. In
this case, press the EJECT () button once again, and wait
until the [EJECT] indicator has gone out before reinserting
the disc.

REGARDING FORCIBLE DISC EJECT

If the EJECT () button fails to operate and a disc cannot be
removed, insert the furnished forcible eject pin into the forcible
eject hole on the front panel of the drive unit to allow the disc to be
removed.
When performing forcible eject, always abide by the following
precautions:
1 Turn off the power to the drive unit and wait at least one
minute.
Inserting the forcible eject pin before one minute
has elapsed may occasion the following dangers:
• The disc may be ejected while it is still rotating at high speed,
causing injury to fingers or hands.
• The drive's disc clamp may rotate in an unstable condition,
causing damage to the disc.
2 Use only the furnished eject pin (do not use other objects)
When the forcible eject pin is inserted fully into the forcible
eject hole, the disc will come out of the slot by about 5 mm to
10 mm, where it can be grasped by the fingers and removed.
