CD DJ
Your vehicle is equipped with a CD DJ (CD changer). It is located in the
center console.
Radio power must be turned on to play the CDs in the CD DJ. The
magazine may be stored in the glove box when not being used.
The CD magazine may be inserted or ejected with the radio power off.
ONLY use the magazine supplied with the CD DJ, other types will
damage the unit.
Keep the CD DJ door closed. Coins and foreign objects will damage the
CD player and void your audio system warranty.
The CD magazine does not have to be full (all 6 disks) for the CD DJ to
function.
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm (4.75 in)
audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility, certain
recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not function
correctly when used in Ford CD players. Irregular shaped CDs,
CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs with
homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into
the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to become
jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be identified
with permanent felt tip marker rather than adhesive labels.
Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please contact your dealer for
further information.
To access the CD DJ:
Slide the door to access the CD DJ
magazine.

If the selected CD is damaged or upside down, CHECK DISCS and the
disc number are displayed. The unit then selects the next available disc.
