Troubleshooting the CD player (if equipped)
The laser beam used in the compact disc
player is harmful to the eyes. Do not
attempt to disassemble the case.
If sound skips:
²You may be traveling on a rough road, playing
badly scratched discs or the disc may be dirty.
Skipping will not scratch the discs or damage the
player.
If your changer does not work, it may be that:
²A disc is already loaded where you want to insert
a disc.
²The disc is inserted with the label surface
downward.
²The disc is dusty or defective.
²The player's internal temperature is above 60ÉC
(140ÉF). Allow the player to cool down before
operating.
²A disc with format and dimensions not within
industry standards is inserted.
