Playing a CD (In Either the DVD or
CD Slot)
Insert a CD partway into the slot, label side up.
The player pulls it in and the CD should begin playing
(loading a disc into the system, depending on media
type and format ranges from 5 to 20 seconds for a CD,
and up to 30 seconds for a DVD to begin playing).
If the ignition or radio is turned off, with a CD in
the player, it stays in the player. When the ignition or
radio is turned on, the CD starts playing where it
stopped, if it was the last selected audio source.
The CD is controlled by the buttons on the radio
faceplate or by the RSA unit. SeeRear Seat Audio
(RSA) on page 3-124for more information. The DVD/CD
decks, (upper slot is the DVD deck and the lower slot
is the CD deck) of the radio are compatible with
most audio CDs, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3/WMAs.
When a CD is inserted, the text label DVD or CD symbol
displays on the left side of the radio display. As each
new track starts to play, the track number displays.
Care of CDs and DVDs
If playing a CD-R, the sound quality can be reduced
due to CD-R or CD-RW quality, the method of recording,
the quality of the music that has been recorded, and
the way the CD-R or CD-RW has been handled.
Handle them carefully. Store CD-R(s) or CD-RW(s) in
their original cases or other protective cases and
away from direct sunlight and dust. The CD or DVD
player scans the bottom surface of the disc. If the
surface of a CD is damaged, such as cracked, broken,
or scratched, the CD does not play properly or not
at all. Do not touch the bottom side of a CD while
handling it; this could damage the surface. Pick up CDs
by grasping the outer edges or the edge of the hole
and the outer edge.
If the surface of a CD is soiled, take a soft, lint free
cloth or dampen a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral
detergent solution mixed with water, and clean it.
Make sure the wiping process starts from the center
to the edge.
