THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
Your CD changer might cause TV or ra-
dio interference even when it is operat-
ing properly. To determine whether your
CD changer is causing the interference,
turn off your CD changer. If the interfer-
ence goes away, your CD changer is
causing it. Try to eliminate the interfer-
ence by:
• Moving your CD changer away from
the receiver.
• Contacting your local RadioShack
store for help.
If you cannot eliminate the interference,
the FCC requires that you stop using
your CD changer.
CD CARE TIPS
Even though a CD is very durable, you
should handle it with care. We recom-
mend the following precautions.
• Keep the CD in its protective case or
sleeve when you are not playing it.
• Handle a CD by its edges to avoid
fingerprints which can prevent the
CD changer’s laser beams from
accurately reading the CD. Your
local RadioShack store sells a suit-
able CD cleaner kit.
• Do not write on either side of the
CD, particularly the non-label side.
(Signals are read from the non-label
side.)
• Keep the CD dry. A water drop can
act as a lens and affect the laser
beam’s focus.
• If you park your vehicle in the sun,
temperatures inside the vehicle can
easily reach levels that could dam-
age your CDs. To prevent heat dam-
age, avoid leaving your CDs in your
vehicle.
• If a CD skips when you play it, the
CD might be scratched. Your local
RadioShack store sells a Scratch
and Fix kit that might help remove
the scratch and stop the skip.
RESETTING THE CD
CHANGER
If your CD changer or any component
locks up or does not work properly, or if
the vehicle’s battery loses power, follow
these steps to reset the CD changer.
1. Turn on your vehicle’s ignition.
2. Slide the CD changer’s door all the
way to the right.
3. With a pointed object, such as a
straightened paper clip, press the
reset hole (to the left of
EJECT
inside the CD changer) for about 2
seconds.
