Care and Maintenance
DVD Player
The following guidelines will help you extend the life of your DVD player:
1. When cleaning the vehicle interior, do not get water or cleaning fluids on the unit.
2. The DVD player will not operate properly in extreme hot/cold or under damp conditions. In
case of such conditions, wait until the vehicle interior reaches a normal temperature or any
condensation on the disc player lens has evaporated before using the player.
3. Always remove the disc when the player is not in use.
4. The unit is designed with a vibration dampening disc mechanism to minimize interruption of
disc play due to normal vibration in a moving vehicle. However, occasional sound skips may
occur when driving on very rough roads. This will not scratch or damage the disc, and normal
play will resume when the rough conditions cease.
CD-R and CD-RW Capability
Depending on media type and method of "recording/burning", some CD-R/RWs may be
incompatible with this unit. After "recording/burning", the session must be closed. Please refer
to your software's recommended procedures for closing a disc/session. Review your recording
software to familiarize yourself with the correct "recording/burning" procedures. We recommend
using the latest versions of ROXIOTM or NEROTM burning software.
In addition, this unit will only recognize the CDDA (Compact Disc Digital Audio), .MP3 and .WMA
formats "recorded / burned" onto a CD-R/RW. This unit does not support .WAV, .OGG or other
formats.
Disc Care and Handling
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.
1. Do not touch the disc surface.
2. Never use chemicals such as record sprays or household cleaners to clean discs, as they can
irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
3. Discs should be kept in their storage cases when not in use.
4. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperatures or high humidity for long periods.
5. Carefully wipe fingerprints, dust and dirt from the disc’s playing surface with a soft cloth.
Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to the outside of the disc.
6. Do not stick paper, tape or disc labels on disc surfaces, as internal damage may occur.
Please Recycle Your Spent Batteries
Batteries should not be disposed of in unsorted municipal waste, but separately collected to
facilitate the correct treatment and recycling of the substances they contain. The recycling of
batteries ensures the recovery of these valuable materials and prevents any potentially harmful
effects upon both the environment and human health.
Please contribute to battery recycling by segregating all spent batteries and actively participating
in their collection and recycling. Various battery collection schemes will be in operation in different
areas of the country. However, battery collection bins will be available at retail stores that sell
batteries as well as at schools, libraries and other public buildings.
