How to use the M MODE button
If you press M MODE, the unit goes into
functions mode, then the number buttons work
as different function buttons.
Discs produce very little noise compared
with other sources. Lower the volume
before playing a disc to avoid damaging
the speakers by the sudden increase of the
output level.
Ex.: When number button 2 works as
MO (monaural) button.
For safety...
• Do not raise the volume level too much, as
this will block outside sounds, making driving
dangerous.
• Stop the car before performing any
complicated operations.

Temperature inside the car...
To use these buttons for their original
functions again after pressing M MODE, wait
for 5 seconds without pressing any of these
buttons until the functions mode is cleared or
press M MODE again.
If you have parked the car for a long time in hot
or cold weather, wait until the temperature in
the car becomes normal before operating the
unit.

To keep discs clean
Maintenance
A dirty disc may not play correctly.
If a disc does become dirty, wipe it
with a soft cloth in a straight line
from center to edge.
How to clean the connectors
Frequent detachment will deteriorate the

connectors.
To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe
the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth
moistened with alcohol, being careful not to
damage the connectors.
To play new discs
New discs may have some rough
spots around the inner and outer
edges. If such a disc is used, this
unit may reject the disc.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges
with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.
Connector
Moisture condensation
Do not use the following discs:
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
CD player in the following cases:
Warped disc
• After starting the heater in the car.
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the CD player may
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until
the moisture evaporates.

edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert
the disc around the center holder (with the
printed surface facing up).
• Make sure to store discs into the cases after
use.

• When Alternative Frequency Reception
is activated (with AF selected), Network-
Tracking Reception is also activated
automatically. On the other hand, Network-
Tracking Reception cannot be deactivated
without deactivating Alternative Frequency
Reception. (See page 11.)

Turning on the power
• By pressing SOURCE on the unit, you can
also turn on the power. If the source is ready,
playback also starts.
• If you want to know more about RDS, visit
Turning off the power
Disc operations
Caution for DualDisc playback
• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does
not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital
Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of Non-
DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may
not be recommended.
• If you turn off the power while listening to a
disc, disc play will start from where playback
has been stopped previously, next time you
turn on the power.
Selecting the sources
• When no disc is loaded in the unit, “DISC”
cannot be selected.
General
• This unit has been designed to reproduce
CDs, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs
(Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA format).
• When a disc has been loaded, selecting
“DISC” for the playback source starts disc
play.
Tuner operations
Storing stations in memory
• During SSM search...
– All previously stored stations are erased and
stations are stored newly.
– Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest
frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).
– When SSM is over, the station stored in
No. 1 will be automatically tuned in.
• When storing a station manually, the
previously preset station is erased when a new
station is stored in the same preset number.
Inserting a disc
• When a disc is inserted upside down, the disc
automatically ejects.
• Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CD) and
unusual shape discs (heart, flower, etc.) into
the loading slot.
FM RDS operations
• Network-Tracking Reception requires
two types of RDS signals—PI (Programme
Identification) and AF (Alternative
Frequency) to work correctly. Without
receiving these data correctly, Network-
Tracking Reception will not operate correctly.
• If a Traffic Announcement is received, the
volume level automatically changes to the
preset level (TA VOL) if the current level is
lower than the preset level.
14
Playing a CD-R or CD-RW
General settings—PSM
• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
• This unit can play back multi-session discs;
however, unclosed sessions will be skipped
while playing.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play
back on this unit because of their disc
characteristics, or for the following causes:
– Discs are dirty or scratched.
• If you change the “AMP GAIN” setting from
“HIGH PWR” to “LOW PWR” while the
volume level is set higher than “VOL 30,” the
unit automatically changes the volume level to
“VOL 30.”

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than
that of regular CDs.
Network-Tracking Reception
Programme A broadcasting on different frequency areas
(01 – 05)
• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal
stuck to the surface.
– Discs on which labels can be directly
printed by an ink jet printer.
Using these discs under high temperatures or
high humidities may cause malfunctions or
damage to the unit.
Changing the source
• If you change the source, playback also stops
(without ejecting the disc).
Next time you select “DISC” for the playback
source, disc play starts from where it has been
stopped previously.
Ejecting a disc
• If the ejected disc is not removed within
15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted
again into the loading slot to protect it from
dust. (Disc will not play this time.)
