Handling

•Compared to ordinary music CDs, CD-R and CD-RW discs are both easily affected by high temperature and humidity and some of CD-R and CD-RW discs may not be played. Therefore, do not leave them for a long time in the car.

•New discs may have some roughness around the edges. If such discs are used, the player may not work or the sound may skip. Use a ball-point pen or the like to re- move any roughness from the edge of the

disc.

Ball-point pen

Roughness

•Do not expose compact discs to direct heat from heaters.

Cleaning

•To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center of the compact disc to the circum- ference.

•Do not use any solvents, such as commer- cially available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner to clean compact discs.

•After using special compact disc cleaner, let the compact disc dry off well before play- ing it.

1.PRECAUTIONS

1.When the inside of the car is very cold and the player is used soon after switching on the heater, moisture may form on the disc or the optical parts of the player and proper playback may not be possible. If moisture forms on the disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If moisture forms on the optical parts of the player, do not use the player for about one hour and the con- densation will disappear naturally to allow nor- mal operation.

2.Driving on extremely bumpy roads which cause severe vibration may cause the sound to skip.

3.This unit uses a precision mechanism. Even in the event that trouble arises, never open the case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate the rotating parts.
