Temperature inside the car....  
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.  
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.

How to read this manual  
How to use the MODE button  
If you press MODE, the unit goes into functions  
mode, then the number buttons work as  
different function buttons.  
The following methods are used to make the  
explanations simple and easy-to-understand:  
• Some related tips and notes are explained in  
“More about this unit” (see page 15).  
• Button operations are mainly explained with  
the illustrations as follows:  
Ex.: When number button 2 works as  
MO (monaural) button.  
Press briefly.  
Press repeatedly.  
Press either one.  
Time countdown indicator  
Press and hold until  
your desired response  
begins.  
To use these buttons for their original  
functions again after pressing MODE, wait  
for 5 seconds without pressing any of these  
buttons until the functions mode is cleared.  
• Pressing MODE again also clears the  
functions mode.  
Press and hold both  
buttons at the same  
time.

Maintenance  
How to clean the connectors  
To keep discs clean  
Frequent detachment will deteriorate the  
connectors.  
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 minimize this possibility, periodically wipe  
the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth  
moistened with alcohol, being careful not to  
damage the connectors.  
• Do not use any solvent (for  
example, conventional record cleaner, spray,  
thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.  
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.  
Connector  
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges  
with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.  
Moisture condensation  
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the  
CD player in the following cases:  
• 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.  
How to handle discs  
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.  
Center holder  
• Always hold the disc by the 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.  
Do not use the following discs:  
Stick-on

More about this unit  
Playing a CD-R or CD-RW  
Basic operations  
• 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, and for the following causes:  
– Discs are dirty or scratched.  
Turning on the power  
• By pressing CD or FM/AM on the unit, you  
can also turn on the power. If the source is  
ready, playback also starts.  
Turning off the power  
• 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.  
– Moisture condensation occurs on the lens  
inside the unit.  
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.  
– CD-R or CD-RW on which the files are  
written with “Packet Write” method.  
– There are improper recording conditions  
(missing data, etc.) or media conditions  
(stain, scratch, warp, etc.).  
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time  
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower  
than that of regular CDs.  
• 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.  
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, a previously  
preset station is erased when a new station is  
stored in the same preset number.  
Using these discs under high temperatures  
or high humidity may cause malfunctions or  
damage to discs.  
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.  
Changing the source  
• If you change the source, playback also stops  
(without ejecting the disc).  
Next time you select “CD” for the playback  
source, disc play starts from where it has been  
stopped previously.  
General  
Ejecting a disc  
• 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 “CD”  
for the playback source starts disc play.  
• 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.)  
Inserting a disc  
• When a disc is inserted upside down, the disc  
automatically ejects.  
• Do not insert 8 cm (3-3/16") discs (single CD)  
and unusual shape discs (heart, flower, etc.)  
into the loading slot.  
General settings—PSM  
• 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.”

Troubleshooting  
What appears to be trouble is not always serious. Check the following points before calling a service  
center.  
Symptoms  
Remedies/Causes  
• Sound cannot be heard from the  
speakers.  
• Adjust the volume to the optimum level.  
• Check the cords and connections.  
• The unit does not work at all.  
Reset the unit (see page 2).  
Store stations manually.  
• SSM automatic presetting does not  
work.  
• Static noise while listening to the  
radio.  
Connect the antenna firmly.  
Insert the disc correctly.  
• Disc automatically ejects.  
• CD-R/CD-RW cannot be played back. • Insert a finalized CD-R/CD-RW.  
• Tracks on the CD-R/CD-RW cannot  
be skipped.  
• Finalize the CD-R/CD-RW with the component  
which you used for recording.  
• Disc can be neither played back nor  
ejected.  
• Unlock the disc (see page 10).  
• Eject the disc forcibly (see page 2).  
• Disc sound is sometimes interrupted. • Stop playback while driving on rough roads.
