Audio System



 CDs bearing the logo shown in the 

illustration can be played. No other discs 

can be played.



 Use discs that have been legitimately 

produced. If illegally-copied discs such 

as pirated discs are used, the system may 

not operate properly.



 Be sure never to touch the signal 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. 

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 

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 

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.



 The CD player ejects the CD if the CD 

is inserted upside down. Also dirty and/

or defective CDs may be ejected.



 Do not insert cleaning discs in the CD 

player.



 Do not insert any disc with a peel-off 

seal affixed to it.



 This unit may not be able to play certain 

CD-R/CD-RWs made using a computer 

or music CD recorder due to disc 

characteristics, scratches, smudges, dirt, 

etc., or due to dust or condensation on 

the lens inside the unit.



 Storing CDs in the vehicle exposed to 

direct sunlight or high temperature may 

damage the CD-R/CD-RWs, and make 

them unplayable.



 CD-R/CD-RW exceeding 700 MB 

cannot be played.



 This unit may not be able to play certain 

discs made using a computer due to the 

application (writing software) setting 

used. (For details, consult the store 

where the application was purchased.)



 It is possible that certain text data, such 

as titles, recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW 

may not be displayed when musical data 

(CD-DA) is playing.



 The period from when a CD-RW is 

inserted to when it begins playing is 

longer than a normal CD or CD-R.



 Completely read the instruction manual 

and cautions for CD-R/CD-RWs.



 Do not use discs with cellophane tape 

adhering, partially peeled off labels, 

or adhesive material exuding from the 

edges of the CD label. Also, do not use 

discs with a commercially-available 

CD-R label affixed. The disc may not 

eject resulting in a malfunction.
