Ensure that the disc is inserted label side up.
The magazine does not need to be full for the changer to operate.
Radio power must be turned on to play the CDs in the changer. The
magazine may be stored in the glove compartment when not being used.
The CD magazine may be inserted or ejected with the radio power off.
If coins or foreign objects get inside your system, they will damage the
CD player and void your audio system warranty.
Do not insert any damaged, or visibly contaminated discs into the
magazine as CD operation will be effected.
Do not insert any promotional (odd shaped or sized) discs, or
discs with removable labels into the CD changer as that jamming
may occur.
Troubleshooting the CD changer (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.
Cleaning compact discs
Inspect all discs for contamination before playing. If necessary, clean
discs only with an approved CD cleaner and wipe from the center out to
the edge. Do not use circular motion.
