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,
while a CD is in the player, it
stays in the player. When the
ignition or radio is turned on, the CDstarts 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 3-111for
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 protectivecases 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.
Care of the CD and DVD Player
Do not add any label to a CD,
it could get caught in the CD or DVD
player. If a CD is recorded on a
personal computer and a description
label is needed, try labeling the
top of the recorded CD with
a marking pen.
