CD EJECT button
When the CD EJECT button is pushed with the
compact disc loaded, the compact disc will be
ejected.
When this button is pushed while the compact
disc is being played, the compact disc will
come out and the system will turn off.
If the compact disc comes out and is not
removed, it will be pulled back into the slot
to protect it.
CD (DISC) indicator light
This light comes on when the compact disc is
loaded.
IDuring cold weather or rainy days,
the player may malfunction due to the
humidity. If this occurs, remove the
CD and dehumidify or ventilate the
player completely.
IThe player may skip while driving on
rough roads.
IThe CD player sometimes cannot
function when the compartment tem-
perature is extremely high. Decreasethe temperature before use.
IDo not expose the CD to direct
sunlight.
Power antenna
The antenna will automatically extend when
the radio is turned on, and retract when
switched off. If the radio is left on, the antenna
will retract and extend with the ignition key
ªOFF-ONº operation.
IBefore turning the radio on, make
sure that there is no one near the
antenna outlet and there is enough
space for it to extend.
ITo prevent damage, be sure that an-
tenna is fully retracted before the
vehicle enters an automated car
wash.
IDirt and other foreign matter on the
power antenna rod may interrupt its
operation. Clean the rod periodically
with a damp cloth. This type of clean-
ing is especially important during the
winter seasons in areas where road
salt and other chemicals may be
spread on road surfaces and
splashed onto the antenna rod.
