Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
N00751900112

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 and can therefore
be damaged and rendered unplayable if left inside your
vehicle for a long time.

Depending on the combination of the writing software,
the CD recorder (CD-R/RW drive), and the disc used to
create a CD-R/RW, the disc might not play successfully.

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
data other than CD-DA or MP3 data (Video CD, etc.).

Be sure to observe the handling instructions for the CD-
R/RW disc.

15. Check and adjust the tire pressure with reference to the air
pressure gauge on the compressor. If you overinflate the
tire, release air by loosening the hose’s end fitting. (Refer
to “Tire inflation pressures” on page 7-21.)
If there is a gap between the tire and wheel because the
tire has moved inward from the wheel rim, press the tire
tread towards the wheel to close the gap before running
the compressor. (With no gaps, the tire pressure will rise.)NOTE
If the tire pressure does not rise to the specified level
within 10 minutes, the tire may be so severely damaged
that the tire sealant cannot be used to effect the emergency
repair. Do not drive the vehicle. Please contact a certified
i-MiEV dealer.
WA R N I N G
!
Do not place your hand or fingers between the tire
and wheel while inflating the tire. Your hand or fin-
gers may become caught between the tire and wheel.
CAUTION
!
The supplied compressor is designed only for infla-
tion of your vehicle tires.
The compressor is designed to run on a vehicle’s
12 V power supply. Do not connect it to any other
power source.
The compressor is not waterproof. If you use it in
rain, make sure water does not get on it.
Any sand or dust sucked into the compressor could
make the compressor break down. Do not place the
compressor directly on any sandy or dusty surface
when using it.
Do not disassemble or modify the compressor. Also,
do not subject the air pressure gauge to shock. It
could malfunction.
CAUTION
!
The surface of the compressor will get hot while the
compressor is running. Do not keep the compressor
running continuously for more than 10 minutes.
After using the compressor, wait for the compressor
to cool before using it again.
If the compressor becomes sluggish or hot while
operating, it is overheating. Immediately place the
switch in the OFF position and let the compressor
cool down for at least 30 minutes.
