Condensation phenomenon

Immediately after turning on the heater
when the vehicle is cold, the CD or optical
components (prism and lens) in the CD
player may become clouded with
condensation. At this time, the CD will
eject immediately when placed in the unit.
A clouded CD can be corrected simply by
wiping it with a soft cloth. Clouded optical
components will clear naturally in about
an hour. Wait for normal operation to
return before attempting to use the unit.
