Use discs that have been legitimately
l
produced. If illegally-copied discs such
as pirated discs are used, the system
may not operate properly.
Be sure never to touch the signal
l
surface when handling the CDs. Pick
up a CD by grasping the outer edge or
the edge of the hole and the outer edge.
Do not stick paper or tape on the CD.
l
Avoid scratching the reverse side (the
side without a label). The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.
Dust, finger smudges, and dirt can
l
decrease the amount of light reflected
from the signal surface, thus affecting
sound quality. If the CD should
become soiled, gently wipe it with a
soft cloth from the center of the CD to
the edge.
Do not use record sprays, antistatic
l
agents, or household spray cleaners.
Volatile chemicals such as benzine and
thinner can also damage the surface of
the CD and must not be used. Anything
that can damage, warp, or fog plastic
should never be used to clean CDs.
Insert discs one by one. If two discs are
l
inserted at the same time, the system
may not operate properly.
CD TEXT textual information cannot
l
be displayed by audio units other than
the CD player/In-dash CD changer.

l
files recorded in CD-ROM, CD-R, and

l
player/In-dash CD changer.

Storing CDs in the vehicle exposed to
