Understanding built-in CD
player error messages
When problems occur during CD play an error
message may appear on the display. If an er-
ror message appears on the display refer to
the table below to see what the problem is
and the suggested method of correcting the
problem. If the error cannot be corrected, con-

CD player and care
• Use only CDs that have either of the two Com-
pact Disc Digital Audio marks as shown be-
low.
• Use only normal, round CDs. If you insert
irregular, non-round, shaped CDs they may
jam in the CD player or not play properly.
• Check all CDs for cracks, scratches or
warped discs before playing. CDs that have
cracks, scratches or are warped may not
play properly. Do not use such discs.
• Avoid touching the recorded (non-printed
side) surface when handling the disc.
• Store discs in their cases when not in use.
• Keep discs out of direct sunlight and do
not expose the discs to high temperatures.
• Do not attach labels, write on or apply
chemicals to the surface of the discs.
• To clean dirt from a CD, wipe the disc with
a soft cloth outward from the centre of the
disc.
• If the heater is used in cold weather, mois-
ture may form on components inside the
CD player. Condensation may cause the
CD player to not operate properly. If you
think that condensation is a problem turn
off the CD player for an hour or so to allow
the CD player to dry out and wipe any
damp discs with a soft cloth to remove the
moisture.
• Road shocks may interrupt CD play-
back.
