Malfunctions
CD/DVD changers and players have been opti‐
mized for performance in vehicles. In some in‐
stances, the CD/DVD players and changers may
be more sensitive to faulty CDs/DVDs than sta‐
tionary devices would be.
If a CD/DVD cannot be played, first check
whether it has been inserted correctly.
Humidity
High levels of humidity can lead to condensation
on the CD/DVD or the laser's scan lens, and tem‐
porarily prevent playback.
Burned CDs/DVDs
▷ Possible reasons for malfunctions with home-
recorded CDs/DVDs are inconsistent data
creation or recording processes, or poor qual‐
ity or old age of the blank CD/DVD.
▷ Only label CDs/DVDs on the upper side with
a pen intended for this purpose.
Using CDs/DVDs correctly
▷ Avoid fingerprints, dust, scratches and mois‐
ture.
▷ Store CDs/DVDs in a sleeve.
▷ Do not subject CDs/DVDs to temperatures
over 122 ℉/50 ℃, high humidity or direct
sunlight.
CDs/DVDs with copy protection
CDs/DVDs are often provided with a copy pro‐
tection feature by the manufacturer. Copy pro‐
tection can mean that some CDs/DVDs cannot
be played or can only be played to a limited ex‐
tent.
