MAINTENANCE
Handling CDs
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
unit in the following cases:
This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs,
CD-Rs, CD-RWs and CD Text.
• After starting the heater in the car.
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In
this case, eject the disc and leave the unit turned
on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.
• This unit is not compatible with MP3 discs.
How to handle discs
Center holder
When removing a disc from
its case, press down the
center holder of the case
and lift the disc out,
holding it by the edges.
• Always hold the disc by
the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs
recorded in audio CD format. However, they may
not be played back depending on their characteristics
or recording conditions.
• User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs
(Rewritable) can be played back only if they are
already “finalized.”
• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read
their instructions or cautions carefully.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played
back on this unit because of their disc
characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if
the player’s lens is dirty.
• CD-Rs or CD-RWs are susceptible to high
temperatures or high humidity; so do not leave
them inside your car.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time.
(This is caused by the fact that the reflectance
of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.)
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.
To keep discs clean
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.
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.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert 8 cm (3-3/16") discs (single CDs)
into the loading slot. (Such discs cannot be
ejected.)
• Do not insert any disc of unusual shape—like a
heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a
malfunction.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any
heat source or place them in a place subject to
high temperature and humidity. Do not leave
them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example,
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,
benzine, etc.) to clean discs.
About mistracking:
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely
rough roads. This does not damage the unit and
the disc, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop disc playback while
driving on such rough roads.
