that there is no external damage.Device operationThe unit should only be used, if the traffic situation permits it. The volume settings must be selected in
such a way that audible signals from the

mp or impair the play function. In such
cases wait until the moisture has dissipated. Notes for the care of the CDs If a CD is soiled, please never clean the CD
