Playing a Compact Disc
The integral CD player can play 8 cm "single"
mini-discs. Full-size compact discs and mini-discs are
loaded in the same manner.

player will pull it in. If the ignition and the radio are on,
the disc will begin playing. If you want to insert a disc
when the ignition is off, first press EJECT.
If you're driving on a very rough road or if it's very hot,
the disc may not play and E (error) and a number may
appear on the radio display. If the disc comes out, it
could be that:

The air is very humid. (If so, wait about an hour and

your dealer when reporting the problem.
