Compact disc care
l Before using a new CD for the first time, remove any burrs in the center\
/outer edge by running the
stem of a pen or similar object around the hole/edge of the disc.
l Use CD standard EN 60908 discs only. Discs not meeting this standard may\
cause problems with
system (poor sound). CDR discs can cause listening problems due to the\
quality of the disc or recording
equipment used.
l Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth, wor\
king from the center outwards.
If necessary, dampen the cloth with a neutral soap solution. Dry thoroug\
hly before using.
l Never use cleaning spray or antistatic liquid. Use only cleaners specifi\
cally made for CD's.
l Use discs of the correct size only (3.5" discs should never be used). \
l Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself. They could become stuck in\
the player.
l Volvo does not recommend the use of plastic outer rings on the disc.
l Condensation may occur on discs/optical components of the changer in col\
d winter weather. The disc
