strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
are normally caused by these external influences.

when the compartment temperature is ex-
tremely high. Decrease the temperature be-
fore use.
•Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight.
•CDs that are of poor quality, dirty, scratched,
covered with finger prints, or that have pin
holes may not work properly.
•The following CDs may not work properly.
