product. Do not operate with a damaged
cover panel as this can lead to severe eye injury.

the heat buildup and cause irreparable damage
to the system.

diameter of 4.7 in/12 cm and do not play CDs/
DVDs with an adapter, e.g. CD singles; other-
wise, the CD/DVD or the adapter can jam and
may no longer eject properly.
Do not use combined CD/DVDs, e.g. DVD
Plus;
otherwise, the CD/DVD can jam, preventing it
from being ejected properly.<

tion in the vehicle. It may react more sensitively

ing lens for the laser beam, temporarily prevent-
ing playback.
