CASSETTE/PLAYER CARE

Do:
• Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a pen or pencil into the hole and

turning the hub.

• Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.

• Allow tapes which have been subjected to extreme heat, humidity or

cold to reach a moderate temperature before playing.

• Clean the cassette player head with a cassette cleaning cartridge after

10–12 hours of play to maintain good sound/operation.

Don’t:
• Use cassettes that are longer than 90 minutes.

• Expose tapes to direct sunlight, extreme humidity, heat or cold.

• Leave tapes in the cassette player for a long time when not being played.

CD/CD PLAYER CARE
Do:
• Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.

• Inspect discs before playing. Clean only with an approved CD cleaner

and wipe from the center out.

Don’t:
• Expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods

of time.

• For vehicles equipped with a six disc CD changer, don’t insert more

than one disc into each slot of the CD changer magazine.

• Clean using a circular motion.
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 4.75 in (12 cm)
audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility, certain
recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not function
correctly when used in Ford CD players. Irregular shaped CDs, CDs
with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs with homemade
paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into the CD player.
The label may peel and cause the CD to become jammed. It is
recommended that homemade CDs be identified with permanent
felt tip marker rather than adhesive labels. Ball point pens may
damage CDs. Please contact your dealer for further information.

AUDIO SYSTEM WARRANTY AND SERVICE
Refer to the Warranty Guide for audio system warranty information. If
service is necessary, see your dealer or qualified technician.
