Precautions upon Handling Discs
After using a disc, put the disc back in its original case to prevent disc scratches.
Do not use abnormally shaped discs (8cm, heart-shaped, octa-gon-shaped) as such discs could lead to malfunctions.
Do not clean discs with chemical solutions, such as record sprays, antistatic sprays, antistatic liquids, benzene, or thinners.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or high temperatures for prolonged periods of time. Such exposure may lead to disc defor-
mation.
Upon playing a disc contaminated by dirt or other substances, the sound quality may deteriorate and result in skipping sounds.
Writing on either side of the disc could result in damage to disc
surfaces.
Clean fingerprints and dust off the disc surface (coated side) with a soft cloth.
Copy-protected CDs, such as S-type CDs, may not properly oper-ate in the device. DATA CDs cannot be played. (However, such
discs may still abnormally operate.)
Do not disassemble the device. Contact a designated service cen-ter in case of malfunction. (Complete after service assistance will
not be provided if the user disassembles the device.)
Do not use water to clean the device. Exposure to water could lead to product malfunction.

rior.
The device may fail to properly operate in extremely hot or cold temperatures. (The operating temperature range is : 14˚F ~ 150˚F)
Steam can become condensed on the fiber-optic lens due to rain, wet conditions, or upon operating the heating system. In such
cases, discs may not be properly recognized. Remove the disc
and wait until the moisture dries.
Skipping may occur during audio play when driving on bumpy
roads for prolonged periods of time or upon severe shock to the
vehicle. In case of severe shock, audio may not properly play.
