HOW TO TAKE DISC OUT IN EMERGENCY - PANASONIC DMR-ES18GCS DMR-ES18GCA DVD Recorder

TO TAKE THE DISC OUT
Taking out the Disc from DVD-Drive Unit when the Disc cannot be ejected by OPEN/CLOSE button
* When the power can be turned off:  Turn off the power and press [STOP] [CH UP] keys on the front panel simultaneously for 5 seconds.
* When the power cannot be turned off:  Press [POWER] key on the front panel for over 10 seconds to turn off the power forcibly, and press [STOP] [CH UP] keys on the front panel simultaneously for 5 seconds.
When the Forcible Disc Eject cannot be done.
Caution: If you push strong and move the Slide Cam to counter direction of the arrow, the stopper will be bended and Slide Cam won’t stop at Stopper and will reach position for taking out Transverse Base.  And transverse base might fall down later.  Do not move Slide Cam in the counter direction of the arrow.  Moreover, the slide cam will be on irregular position against condition of the shipment; if the tray is pushed by the hand after manual tray ejection is done, the hold of transverse base becomes imperfect, and the danger of fall of transverse base increases.  Close the tray completely after manual tray ejection was done.  Especially finish CLOSE function of try by electricity when the product will be transported after inspection.
