5Handling of compact discs
N00734100223

Use only the type of compact discs that have the mark
shown in the illustration below. (Playback of CD-R or
CD-RW discs may cause problems.)

The use of special shaped, damaged compact discs (like
cracked discs) or low-quality compact discs (like warped
discs or burrs on the discs) such as those shown will dam-
age the CD player.

In the following circumstances, moisture can form on
compact discs and inside the audio system, preventing
normal operation.
• When there is high humidity (for example, when it is
raining).
• When the temperature suddenly rises, such as right after
the heater is turned on in cold weather.
In this case, wait until the moisture has had time to dry
out.

When the CD player is subjected to violent vibrations,
such as during off-road driving, the tracking may not
work.

When storing compact discs, always store them in their
separate cases. Never place compact discs in direct sun-
light, or in any place where the temperature or humidity is
high.

Never touch the flat surface of the disc where there isn’t a
label. This will damage the disc surface and could affect
the sound quality. When handling a compact disc, always
hold it by the outer edge and the center hole.
To clean a disc, use a soft, clean, dry cloth. Wipe directly
from the center hole toward the outer edge. Do not wipe in
a circle. Never use any chemicals such as benzine, paint
thinner, a disc spray cleaner, or an anti-static agent on the
disc.

Do not use a ball point pen, felt pen, pencil, etc. to write
on the label surface of the disc.

Do not put additional labels (A) or stickers (B) on com-
pact discs. Also, do not use any compact disc on which a
label or sticker has started to peel off or any compact disc
that has stickiness or other contamination left by a peeled-
off label or sticker. If you use such a compact disc, the CD
player may stop working properly and you may not be
able to eject the compact disc.
Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
N00751900053

You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs
recorded on CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due
to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints,
scratches, etc. on the disc surface.

CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and
high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them
inside a vehicle for extended periods may damage them
and make playback impossible.

The unit may not successfully play back a CD-R/RW that
was made by the combination of writing software, a CD
recorder (CD-R/RW drive) and a disc if they are incom-
patible with one another.

This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session
is not closed.

This player cannot play CD-R/RW discs which contain
other than CD-DA or MP3 data (Video CD, etc.).

Be sure to observe the handling instructions for the CD-
R/RW disc.
WA R N I N G
!
Operating the CD player in a manner other than
specifically instructed herein may result in hazard-
ous radiation exposure.
Do not remove the cover and attempt to repair the
CD player by yourself. There are no user serviceable
parts inside. In case of malfunction, contact an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice.
