When the vehicle warms up during cold weather or under damp
conditions, moisture may condense on the lens of the disc player.
Should this occur, the player will not operate properly until the
moisture has evaporated.

The unit is designed with a vibration dampening CD mechanism to
minimize interruption of disc play due to normal vibration in a moving
vehicle. When driving on very rough roads, however, occasional
sound skips may occur. This will not scratch or damage the disc
and normal play will resume when the rough conditions cease.
HANDLING COMPACT DISCS
Dirt, dust, scratches, and warpage can cause skips in the playback
and deterioration of sound quality. Please follow these guidelines to
take care of your compact discs:
l
Use only compact discs with the mark .

Fingerprints, dust, and dirt should be carefully wiped off the disc’s
playing surface (shiny side) with a soft cloth. Wipe in a straight
motion from the inside to the outside of the disc.
l
Never use chemicals such as record sprays, household cleaners
or thinner to clean compact discs. Such chemicals can irreparably
damage the disc’s surface.

Discs should be kept in their storage cases when not in use.
l
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperatures or high
humidity for extended periods.

will automatically stop play of the disc. In this case, allow the unit
to cool off before operating the player again.
