Handling Compact Discs

Use only compact discs bearing the

mark.

Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other
specially shaped compact discs.

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 remove any rough-
ness from the edge of the disc.

Ball-point pen

Roughness

• Never stick labels on the surface of the com-

pact disc or mark the surface with a pencil or
pen.

• Never play a compact disc with any cello-

phane tape or other glue on it or with peeling
off marks. If you try to play such a compact
disc, you may not be able to get it back out of
the CD player or it may damage the CD
player.

• Do not use compact discs that have large

scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use
of such discs may cause misoperation or
damage.

• To remove a compact disc from its storage

case, press down on the center of the case
and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the
edges.

• Do not use commercially available CD protec-

tion sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers,
etc. These may damage the disc or cause
breakdown of the internal mechanism.

Storage

• Do not expose compact discs to direct sun-

light or any heat source.

• Do not expose compact discs to excess hu-

midity or dust.

• 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 cen-
ter of the compact disc to the circumference.

• 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 playing it.

vehicle purpose only. Use for tractor, fork
truck, bulldozer, off road vehicle, 2 or 3 wheel
motor bicycle, marine boat or other special
purpose vehicle is not appropriate.

2. 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 play-
back 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. The condensation will disappear natu-
rally allowing normal operation.

3. Driving on extremely bumpy roads which

cause severe vibration may cause the sound
to skip.

INFORMATION FOR USERS:

CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS
PRODUCT NOT APPROVED BY THE MANU-

For VW and Audi Vehicles

1. When the car stereo is installed in 1998 and

later Volkswagen models, make sure to cut
the car lead wire connected the A-5 terminal.
(A breakdown could occur if the lead wire is
not cut.) After cutting the lead wire, insulate
the front end of the lead wire with insulation
tape to prevent the risk of short-circuits.

Note:
Before cutting the lead wire, disconnect the car
battery - (negative) cable.

2. When the main unit is also connected to an

external amplifier, connect REMOTE on the
external amplifier to the previously cut lead
wire on the side of the connector.

3. Volkswagen models have already changed

position of the fuse for installation in such ve-
hicles.

4. DCP

The control panel can be detached to prevent
theft. When detaching the control panel, store it
in the DCP (DETACHABLE CONTROL PANEL)
