INTRODUCTION
❒Carefully clean all Compact Discs of fin-
gerprints and dust using a soft cloth. Sup-
port Compact Discs from the outer cir-
cumference and clean from the centre
outwards;
❒Never use chemical products for clean-
ing (e.g.: spray cans, antistatic or thin-
ners) as they might damage the surface
of Compact Discs;
❒After use, put Compact Discs back in
their container, to avoid marks or
scratches that may cause skipping when
playing;
❒Do not expose Compact Discs to direct
sunlight, high temperatures or damp for
prolonged lengths of time to prevent
them from bending;
❒Do not stick labels or write on the
recorded surface of Compact Discs.To remove a Compact Disc from its con-
tainer, press the centre and raise the disc
carefully, holding it by the outer circum-
ference.
Always hold Compact Discs by the outer
circumference. Never touch the surface.
To remove fingerprints and dust, use a
soft cloth starting from the centre of the
Compact Disc outwards.
Do not use highly scratched, cracked, or
distorted discs, etc. The use of these discs
will involve malfunctioning or damage to
the player.
For optimal playing use original CDs only.
Regular operation is not guaranteed if us-
ing R/RW CDs not properly mastered
and/or CDs with max. capacity higher than
650 MB.
IMPORTANT Do not use the protective
sheets for CD in commerce or discs with
stabilisers, etc. as they might get stuck in
the internal mechanism and damage the
disc. Care and maintenance
The radio structure ensures long opera-
tion with no need for particular mainte-
nance. In the event of a fault, contact a Fi-
at Dealership.
To clean the front panel only use a soft,
antistatic cloth. Cleaning and polishing
products might spoil the surface.
