Disc Errors
If the DVD player is unable to read the disc, aDisc Error
message is displayed on the VES and Radio displays and
the disc is automatically ejected. A dirty, damaged, or
incompatible disc format are all potential causes for a
Disc Error message.
If a disc has a damaged track which results in audible or
visible errors that persists for 2.0 seconds, the DVD player
will attempt to continue playing the disc by skipping
forward 1.0 to 3.0 seconds at a time. If the end of the disc is
reached, the DVD player will return to the beginning of the
disc and attempt to play the start of the first track.
The DVD player may shut down during extremely hot
conditions, such as when the vehicle’s interior temperature
is above 120°F. When this occurs, the DVD player will
displayVES High Temp and will shut off the VES displays
until a safe temperature is reached. This shutdown is neces-
sary to protect the optics of the DVD player.

RADIO OPERATION AND MOBILE PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile phone being on in
your vehicle can cause erratic or noisy performance from
your radio. This condition may be lessened or eliminated
by relocating the mobile phone antenna. This condition is
not harmful to the radio. If your radio performance does
not satisfactorily “clear” by the repositioning of the
antenna, it is recommended that the radio volume be
turned down or off during mobile phone operation when
not using Uconnect (if equipped).
