Scrolling through maintenance options
With the drive in maintenance mode, press the eject push button at a rate of once per second. The
single-character display code increments by one each time you press the eject push button.
Note: Do not press the eject push button more frequently than once per second or the selected
maintenance function will occur instead of the desired scrolling operation.
After the last maintenance function is reached, the display code wraps to 0. Unassigned digits (B, D, and
G) are not displayed when the options are incremented.
The following table lists the maintenance functions.
