❒ When the number of discs exceeds 30, set-

tings for the new disc replace those for the
oldest disc.

DVD drive and care

• Use only normal, round discs. If you insert

irregular, non-round shaped discs they may
jam in the DVD drive or not play properly.

• Check all discs for cracks, scratches or warp-

age before playing. Discs that have cracks or
scratches, or those that are warped may not
play properly. 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 to, write on or apply chem-

icals to the surface of the discs.

• To clean dirt from a disc, wipe the disc with a

soft cloth outward from the center of the disc.

• If the heater is used in cold weather, condensa-

tion may form on components inside the DVD
drive. Condensation may cause the DVD drive
to operate incorrectly. If you think that conden-
sation is a problem, turn off the DVD drive for
an hour or so to allow the DVD drive to dry out,
and wipe any damp discs with a soft cloth to
remove the moisture.

• Road shocks may interrupt disc playback.

About playing Dual Disc

• Dual Discs are two-sided discs that have a

recordable CD for audio on one side and a
recordable DVD for video on the other.

• Playback of the DVD side is possible with this

unit. However, since the CD side of Dual Discs
is not physically compatible with the general
CD standard, it may not be possible to play the
CD side with this navigation system.

• Frequent loading and ejecting of a Dual Disc

may result in scratches on the disc.

• Serious scratches can lead to playback prob-

lems on this navigation system. In some
cases, a Dual Disc may become stuck in the
disc loading slot and will not eject. To prevent
this, we recommend you refrain from using
Dual Disc with this navigation system.

• Please refer to the manufacturer for more

detailed information about Dual Discs.

CD-R/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 charac-
teristics, scratches or dirt on the disc, or dirt,
scratches or condensation on the lens of this
product.
