Music cannot be played back. The disc is inserted upside down. Insert a CD with the label side facing up.
Moisture has accumulated inside the unit. Wait until the moisture evaporates (approximately 1 hour) .
The cabin temperature is too high. Wait until the cabin temperature becomes moderate.
The disc is scratched or dirty. Wipe off any dirt from the disc.
Scratched discs cannot be recovered. Replace the disc.
Depending on the condition in which they are stored, discs
may become unreadable due to deterioration (for example,
keeping the discs in the passenger compartment, etc.) . Replace the disc with a deterioration-free disc. Do not use a
deteriorated disc. The label surface of a disc may crack or
chip, and the layer of the label surface may eventually peel
off.
Compressed audio files cannot be played back. If both music CD files (CD-DA data) and compressed au-
dio files (MP3 data, etc.) are mixed on one disc, the com-
pressed audio files cannot be played back. Prepare a disc that contains compressed audio files only.
The files are not named using characters that are compliant
with the specifications. Use the character codes and the number of characters that
are compliant with the specifications for the folder names
and file names. In addition, always use “.MP3”, “.WMA”,
“.mp3” or “.wma” file extensions.
It takes a long time before the music starts playing. The disc contains a large amount of data. Some time may be required to check the files. It is recom-
mended that unnecessary folders or any files other than
compressed audio files should not be recorded on a disc.
The sound quality is poor. The disc is dirty. Wipe off any dirt from the disc.
No sounds are played although the CD play time is
displayed. The system is playing the first track of a mix mode disc.
(Mix mode is a format in which data except music is re-
corded on the first track and music data is recorded on one
other than the first track in a session.) Play music data in other tracks.
Music cuts off or skips. The combination of writing software and hardware might
not match; or the writing speed, writing depth, writing
width, etc. might not match the specifications. Create a disc using different writing speed settings, etc.

shield Washer Concentrate Cleaner & Antifreeze
or equivalent.
CAUTION
●Do not substitute engine antifreeze
coolant for windshield-washer fluid.
This may result in damage to the paint.
● Do not fill the windshield-washer fluid
reservoir with washer fluid concen-
trates at full strength. Some methyl al-
cohol based washer fluid concentrates
may permanently stain the grille if
spilled while filling the windshield-
washer fluid reservoir.
● Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with
water to the manufacturer’s recom-
mended levels before pouring the fluid
into the windshield-washer fluid reser-
voir. Do not use the windshield-washer
fluid reservoir to mix the washer fluid
concentrate and water. ●
