Additional Information
• Do not attach labels, write on or apply chemi-
cals to the surface of the discs.
• To clean dirt from a CD, wipe the disc with a
soft cloth outward from the center of the disc.
• If the heater is used in cold weather, moisture
may form on components inside the CD
player. Condensation may cause the CD
player to not operate properly. If you think that
condensation is a problem turn off the CD
player for an hour or so to allow the CD player
to dry out and wipe any damp discs with a soft
cloth to remove the moisture.
• Road shocks may interrupt CD playback.

CD-R/CD-RW discs

units other than a music CD recorder may not
play properly on this CD player.
• Music CD-R/CD-RW discs, even recorded on a
music CD recorder, may not play properly on
this CD player due to differing disc character-
istics, scratches or dirt on the disc. Dirt or
condensation on the lens inside this unit may
also prevent playback.

before using them.
