
CDs bearing the logo shown in the
illustration can be played. No other discs
can be played.

Use discs that have been legitimately
produced. If illegally-copied discs such
as pirated discs are used, the system
may not operate properly.

Be sure never to touch the signal surface
when handling the CDs. Pick up a CD
by grasping the outer edge or the edge
of the hole and the outer edge.

Do not stick paper or tape on the CD.
Avoid scratching the reverse side (the
side without a label). The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.

Dust, finger smudges, and dirt can
decrease the amount of light reflected
from the signal surface, thus affecting
sound quality. If the CD should become
soiled, gently wipe it with a soft cloth
from the center of the CD to the edge.

Do not use record sprays, antistatic
agents, or household spray cleaners.
Volatile chemicals such as benzine and
thinner can also damage the surface of
the CD and must not be used. Anything
that can damage, warp, or fog plastic
should never be used to clean CDs.

The CD player ejects the CD if the CD
is inserted upside down. Also dirty
and/or defective CDs may be ejected.

Do not insert cleaning discs in the CD
player.

Do not insert any disc with a peel-off
seal affixed to it.

This unit may not be able to play certain
CD-R/CD-RWs made using a computer
or music CD recorder due to disc
characteristics, scratches, smudges, dirt,
etc., or due to dust or condensation on
the lens inside the unit.

Storing CDs in the vehicle exposed to
direct sunlight or high temperature may
damage the CD-R/CD-RWs, and make
them unplayable.

CD-R/CD-RW exceeding 700 MB
cannot be played.

This unit may not be able to play certain
discs made using a computer due to the
application (writing software) setting
used. (For details, consult the store
where the application was purchased.)

It is possible that certain text data, such
as titles, recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW
may not be displayed when musical data
(CD-DA) is playing.

The period from when a CD-RW is
inserted to when it begins playing is
longer than a normal CD or CD-R.
