Additional Information

Precautions

•If your car has been parked in direct sunlight, allow the unit to cool off before operating it.

•Power aerial will extend automatically while the unit is operating.

Moisture condensation

On a rainy day or in a very damp area, moisture condensation may occur inside the lenses and display of the unit. Should this occur, the unit will not operate properly. In such a case, remove the disc and wait for about an hour until the moisture has evaporated.

To maintain high sound quality

Be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks onto the unit or discs.

Notes on discs

•To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface. Handle the disc by its edge.

•Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines when not in use.

•Do not subject discs to heat/high temperature. Avoid leaving them in a parked car or on a dashboard/rear tray.

•Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky ink/ residue. Such discs may stop spinning when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin the disc.

•Do not use any discs with labels or stickers attached.

The following malfunctions may result from using such discs:

–Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or sticker peeling off and jamming the eject mechanism).

–Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g., playback skipping, or no playback) due to heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing a disc to warp.

•Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square, star) cannot be played on this unit. Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do not use such discs.

•You cannot play 8 cm CDs.
