Care and Maintenance
1. Use only a clean silicone cloth and neutral detergent to
clean the front panel or monitor. A rough cloth and non-
neutral detergent (such as alcohol) may result in
scratching or discoloration.
2. Do not get water or cleaning fluids on the unit.
3. If the temperature inside the player gets too hot, a
protective circuit automatically stops play of the disc. If
this occurs, allow the unit to cool before operating the
player again.
4. Never insert anything other than a 5” (12 cm) compact
disc into the player as the mechanism can be damaged
by foreign objects.
5. Do not attempt to use a 3” (8 cm) CD-Single disc in this
unit, either with or without an adaptor, as damage to the
player and/or disc may occur. Such damage is not
covered by the Warranty on this product.
6. The CD player may not operate properly in extreme hot
or cold. If such conditions occur, allow the interior of the
vehicle to reach a normal temperature before using
player.
7. When the vehicle warms up during cold weather or
under damp conditions, condensation may appear on
the LCD panel. Should this occur, the screen will not
operate properly until the moisture has evaporated.
8. We suggest you use a cleaning disc in this unit more
frequently than in the unit in your home due to the
environmental conditions of the vehicle.
