CD player and care, CD-R and CD-RW discs

CD player and care

•Use only CDs that have either of the two Compact Disc Digital Audio marks as shown below.

•Use only normal, round CDs. If you insert irregular, non-round, shaped CDs they may jam in the CD player or not play properly.

•Check all CDs for cracks, scratches or warping before playing. CDs that have cracks, scratches or are warped may not play properly. Do not use such discs.

•Avoid touching the recorded (non-print- ed) surface when handling the disc.

•Store discs in their cases when not in use.

•Keep discs out of direct sunlight and do not expose the discs to high tempera- tures.

•Do not attach labels, write on or apply chemicals to the surface of the discs.

•To clean a CD, wipe the disc with a soft cloth outward from the center.

•If the heater is used in cold weather, moisture may form on components inside the CD player. Condensation may cause the CD player to malfunc- tion. If you think that condensation is a problem, turn off the CD player for an hour or so to allow it to dry out and wipe any damp discs with a soft cloth to remove the moisture.

•Road shocks may interrupt CD play- back.

•Never put a label, tape or scratches on a disc. These will prevent the disc from being played.

CD-R and CD-RW discs

•When CD-R/CD-RW discs are used, playback is possible only for discs which have been finalized.

•It may not be possible to play back CD- R/CD-RW discs recorded on a music CD recorder or a personal computer because of disc characteristics, scratch- es or dirt on the disc, or dirt, condensa- tion, etc,. on the lens of this unit.

•Playback of discs recorded on a person- al computer may not be possible, depending on the application settings and the environment. Please record with the correct format. (For details, contact the manufacturer of the appli- cation.)

•Playback of CD-R/CD-RW discs may become impossible in case of direct exposure to sunlight, high tempera- tures, or the storage conditions in the car.

•Titles and other text information record- ed on a CD-R/CD-RW disc may not be displayed by this unit (in the case of audio data (CD-DA)).

•This unit conforms to the track skip function of the CD-R/CD-RW disc. The tracks containing the track skip informa- tion are skipped automatically (in case of audio data (CD-DA)).

•If you insert a CD-RW disc into this unit, time to playback will be longer than when you insert a conventional CD or CD-R disc.

•Read the precautions accompanying the CD-R/CD-RW discs before use.

•Recordings on CD-R/CD-RW can not be played back using the DDCD (Double Density CD) system.
