displays and/or the disc ejects, it
could be for one of the following
reasons:
.The radio system does not
support the playlist format, the
compressed audio format, or the
data file format.
.It is very hot. When the
temperature returns to normal,
the disc should play.
.The road is very rough. When
the road becomes smoother, the
disc should play.
.The disc is dirty, scratched, wet,
or upside down.
.The air is very humid. If so, wait
about an hour and try again.

any other reason, try a known
good disc.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if
an error cannot be corrected,
contact your dealer. If the radio
displays an error message, write it
down and provide it to your dealer
when reporting the problem.
CD/DVD Player
The infotainment system's CD/DVD
player can play audio discs and
MP3 discs.
Discs that are 8 cm (3 in) in
diameter will not work in the CD/
DVD player.

discs. If a DVD video disc is
inserted into the player, the radio

“Read Error Please Check
Disc” and ejects the disc. Care of CDs and DVDs
If playing a CD/DVD, the sound
quality can be reduced due to disc
quality, the method of recording, the
quality of the music that has been
recorded, and the way the disc has
been handled. Handle discs
carefully. Store CDs and DVDs in
their original cases or other
protective cases and away from
direct sunlight and dust. The CD/
DVD player scans the bottom
surface of the disc. If the surface of
a disc is damaged, such as cracked,
broken, or scratched, the disc may
not play properly or not at all. Do
not touch the bottom side of a disc
while handling it; this could damage
the surface. Pick up discs by
grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
If the surface of a disc 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.
