1. When the inside of the car is very cold and the

player is used soon after switching on the
heater moisture may form on the disc or the
optical parts of the player and proper playback
may not be possible. If moisture forms on the
disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If moisture
forms on the optical parts of the player, do not
use the player for about one hour. The
condensation will disappear naturally allowing
normal operation.

Handling Compact Discs

Use only compact discs bearing the 

 or

 mark.

Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other
specially shaped compact discs.

Some CDs recorded in CD-R/CD-RW mode
may not be usable.

Handling

• Compared to ordinary music CDs, CD-R and

CD-RW discs are both easily affected by high
temperature and humidity and some of CD-R
and CD-RW discs may not be played. Therefore,
do not leave them for a long time in the car.

• New discs may have some roughness around

the edges. If such
discs are used, the
player may not work
or the sound may
skip. Use a ball-point
pen or the like to
remove any
roughness from the
edge of the disc.

• Never stick labels on the surface of the compact

disc or mark the surface with a pencil or pen.

• Never play a compact disc with any

cellophane tape or other glue on it or with
peeling off marks. If you try to play such a
compact disc, you may not be able to get it
back out of the CD player or it may damage
the CD player.

• Do not use compact discs that have large

scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of
such discs may cause misoperation or damage.

• To remove a compact disc from its storage case,

press down on the center of the case and lift the
disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.

• Do not use commercially available CD

protection sheets or discs equipped with
stabilizers, etc. These may damage the disc or
cause breakdown of the internal mechanism.

Storage

• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight

or any heat source.

• Do not expose compact discs to excess

humidity or dust.

• Do not expose compact discs to direct heat

from heaters.

Cleaning

• To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft

cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center
of the compact disc to the circumference.

• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially

available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner
to clean compact discs.

• After using special compact disc cleaner, let

the compact disc dry off well before playing it.
