The disc tray opens automatically when you press the eject

* When you place a disc in the tray, make sure that the label on the
disc is facing outwards. If you are not loading or unloading a disc, the
tray should remain closed.

If the disc tray does not open when you press the eject button, power
off the computer, insert a pin or unfolded paper clip in the hole and push
firmly.

Drive Operation:

Place the disc in the center of the tray with the label side facing up.
Push the disc tray closed completely by hand.

Usage Guidelines
Do not press down on the disc tray when opening or closing it.
Do not place objects on the disc tray.
Never use a damaged, broken, or deformed disc.
Do not press the eject button while the computer is accessing the disc.
Keep the disc tray closed when not using the slim combo drive.
Do not press the eject button while the drive is playing a disc movie.
To stop a disc movie, click Stop button in the disc player application
program.
NOTE : High-speed drives spin the disc at a high rotational
speed. If a disc has printing on only half of the disc, or if there is
a slight imbalance in the disc, the imbalance is greatly magnified by the
high speed, causing the drive to vibrate or produce a fan-like noise. These
effects are inherent in the high-speed technology and do not indicate a
problem with the drive.
Emergency Ejection
The procedure described below can be used to remove a disc from the slim
combo drive if the eject button is disabled by software or a power failure occurs.
Turn the computer off.
Insert a small diameter rod or a stiff wire (a straightened paper clip
about 1.2mm in diameter) into the emergency eject hole and push hard.
The disc tray is ejected by about 10mm. Pull it all the way open by hand.
NOTE :
Use a rod that is less than 1.2 mm in diameter. Do not insert more than 50mm in depth. Inserting more than 50mm may damage the slim combo drive.
Cleaning Media
If dust or fingerprints get on the disc, wipe it with a soft cloth from
the center to the edge.
Do not use benzene, paint thinner, record cleaner, or static repellent.
This can damage the disc.
Cleaning the Drive
Cleaning the inside of the drive is not recommended.
