As far as I'm aware, you don't. When the drive opens, it pushes the
panel down and when it retracts, the panel returns. You have to use
whatever option it is in the OS you're using to open the CD rather than
pressing the front panel button.

Hmm...sounds like there should be some sort of spring on the door.
Perhaps that's what is wrong or missing. Thank you!

Kind regards,
