Handle CDs carefully to prevent
interference during playback.


Avoid scratches, fingerprints and dust
on the CDs.


Do not write on CDs or apply any labels
or other material to them.


Clean CDs from time to time with a
commercially available cleaning cloth.
Never wipe the CD in a circular motion;
instead, wipe it in a straight line start-
ing in the center and moving outward.
Do not use solvents, anti-static sprays,
etc. for cleaning.


Replace the CD in its case after use.


Protect CDs from heat and direct
sunlight.
!If you affix stickers to the CDs, they can
become warped due to the heat that
develops in the CD drive or
CD changer.
In certain situations, the CDs can then
no longer be ejected and cause
damage to the drive. Such damage is
not covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty.!Your CD drive or CD changer has been
designed to play CDs which
correspond to the EN 60908 standard.
You can therefore only use CDs with a
maximum thickness of 1.3 mm.
If you insert thicker data carriers, e.g.
ones that have data on both sides (one
side with DVD data, the other side with
audio data), they cannot be ejected and
will damage the drive.
