CD player and care

Use only CDs that have either of the two Compact Disc Digital Audio marks as show 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 warped discs before playing. CDs that have cracks, scratches or are warped may not play prop- erly. Do not use such discs.

Avoid touching the recorded (non-printed side) 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 temperatures.

Do not attach labels, write on or apply chemi- cals to the surface of the discs.

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

If the heater is used in cold weather, moisture may form on components inside the CD player. Condensation may cause the CD player to not operate properly. If you think that condensation is a problem turn off the CD player for an hour or so to allow the CD player to dry out and wipe any damp discs with a soft cloth to remove the moisture.

Road shocks may interrupt CD playback.
