CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CD Player
The following guidelines will help you extend the life of your CD player:
1. When cleaning the vehicle interior, do not get water or cleaning fluids on
the unit.
2. The CD player will not operate properly in extreme hot/cold or under
damp conditions. In case of such conditions, wait until the vehicle
interior reaches a normal temperature or any condensation on the disc
player lens has evaporated before using the player.
3. Never insert anything other than round 5” CDs into the player.
Attempting to insert CDs of other sizes (even with an adaptor) will
cause damage not covered by the warranty.
4. Always remove the CD when the player is not in use.
5. The unit is designed with a vibration dampening CD mechanism to
minimize interruption of disc play due to normal vibration in a moving
vehicle. However, occasional sound skips may occur when driving on
very rough roads. This will not scratch or damage the disc, and normal
play will resume when the rough conditions cease.
Compact Discs
CD-R and CD-RW Capability
Depending on media type and method of "recording/burning", some CD-R/
RWs may be incompatible with this unit. After "recording/burning", the
session must be closed. Please refer to your software's recommended
procedures for closing a disc/session. Review your recording software to
familiarize yourself with the correct "recording/burning" procedures. We
recommend using the latest versions of ROXIO
TM
or NERO
TM
burning
software.
In addition, this unit will only recognize the CDDA (Compact Disc Digital
Audio), .MP3 and .WMA formats "recorded / burned" onto a CD-R/RW. This
unit does not support .WAV, .OGG or other formats.
CD Care and Handling
Dirt, dust, scratches and warpage can cause skips in the playback and
deterioration of sound quality. Please follow these guidelines to take care of
your compact discs.
1. Carefully wipe fingerprints, dust and dirt from the disc’s playing surface
with a soft cloth. Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to the outside
of the disc.
2. Never use chemicals such as record sprays or household cleaners to
clean CDs, as they can irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
3. Discs should be kept in their storage cases when not in use.
4. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperatures or high
humidity for long periods.
5. Do not stick paper, tape or CD labels on disc surfaces, as internal
damage may occur.
