Handling CDs
The CD player buit in this unit has been designed only to play back the CDs bearing the
COMPACT
DIGITAL AUDIO
mark.
Other discs cannot be played back.
How to handle CDs
When removing a CD from its case, press down the center holder of the case
and lift the CD out, holding it by the edges.
• Always hold the CD by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When storing a CD into its case, gently insert the CD around the center
holder (with the printed surface facing up).
• Make sure to store CDs into the cases after use.
To keep CDs clean
A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft
cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
To play new CDs
New CDs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such
a CD is used, this unit may reject the CD.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player in the following cases:
• After starting the heater in the car.
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the CD player may malfunction. In this case, eject the CD and leave the unit turned on
for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert any CD of unusual shape — like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will malfunction.
• Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place them in a place subject to high temperature
and humidity. Do not leave them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean CDs.
About mistracking:
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads. This does not damage the unit and
the CD, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop CD play while driving on such rough roads.
