Condensation phenomenon
Immediately after turning on the heater
when the vehicle is cold, the CD or
optical components (prism and lens) in
the CD player may become clouded with
condensation. At this time, the CD will
eject immediately when placed in the unit.
A clouded CD can be corrected simply by
wiping it with a soft cloth. Clouded optical
components will clear naturally in about
an hour. Wait for normal operation to
return before attempting to use the unit.
Handling the CD player
The following precautions should be
observed.
 


 Do not use deformed or cracked CDs.
The disc may not eject resulting in a
malfunction.

 


 Do not use non-conventional discs such
as heart-shaped, octagonal discs, etc.
The disc may not eject resulting in a
malfunction.


 


 If the memory portion of the CD is
transparent or translucent, do not use the
disc.

 A new CD may have rough edges on its
inner and outer perimeters. If a disc with
rough edges is used, proper setting will
not be possible and the CD player will
not play the CD. In addition, the disc
may not eject resulting in a malfunction.
Remove the rough edges in advance
by using a ball-point pen or pencil
as shown in the following ¿ gure. To
remove the rough edges, rub the side of
the pen or pencil against the inner and
outer perimeter of the CD.

 


 When driving over uneven surfaces, the
sound may jump.

 CDs bearing the logo shown in the
illustration can be played. No other discs
can be played.

 


 Use discs that have been legitimately
produced. If illegally-copied discs such
as pirated discs are used, the system may
not operate properly.
 


 Be sure never to touch the signal surface
when handling the CDs. Pick up a CD
by grasping the outer edge or the edge of
the hole and the outer edge.

 


 Do not stick paper or tape on the CD.
Avoid scratching the reverse side (the
side without a label). The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.
 


 Dust, ¿ nger smudges, and dirt can
decrease the amount of light reÀ ected
from the signal surface, thus affecting
sound quality. If the CD should become
soiled, gently wipe it with a soft cloth
from the centre of the CD to the edge.
 


 Do not use record sprays, antistatic
agents, or household spray cleaners.
Volatile chemicals such as benzine and
thinner can also damage the surface of
the CD and must not be used. Anything
that can damage, warp, or fog plastic
should never be used to clean CDs.
 


 The CD player ejects the CD if the CD
is inserted upside down. Also dirty and/
or defective CDs may be ejected.
 


 Do not insert cleaning discs in the CD
player.
 


 Do not insert any disc with a peel-off
seal af¿ xed to it.




 This unit may not be able to play certain
CD-R/CD-RWs made using a computer
or music CD recorder due to disc
characteristics, scratches, smudges, dirt,
etc., or due to dust or condensation on
the lens inside the unit.
 


 Storing CDs in the vehicle exposed to
direct sunlight or high temperature may
damage the CD-R/CD-RWs, and make
them unplayable.
 


 CD-R/CD-RW exceeding 700 MB
cannot be played.
 


 This unit may not be able to play certain
discs made using a computer due to the
application (writing software) setting
used. (For details, consult the store
where the application was purchased.)
 


 It is possible that certain text data, such
as titles, recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW
may not be displayed when musical data
(CD-DA) is playing.
 


 The period from when a CD-RW is
inserted to when it begins playing is
longer than a normal CD or CD-R.
 


 Completely read the instruction manual
and cautions for CD-R/CD-RWs.
 


 Do not use discs with cellophane tape
adhering, partially peeled off labels,
or adhesive material exuding from the
edges of the CD label. Also, do not use
discs with a commercially-available
CD-R label af¿ xed. The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.

Glossary
DVD-Video
DVD-Video is a video image storing
standard determined by the DVD forum.
“MPEG2”, a global standard in digital
compression technologies, has been
adopted which compresses on average
about 1/40th of the image data and stores
it. In addition, a variable-rate coding
technology, which changes the assigned
information amount according to the shape
of the screen image, has been adopted.
Audio information can be stored using
Dolby digital instead of PCM (Pulse Code
Modulation) and more realistic sounding
audio can be enjoyed.
In addition, various, supplementary
functions such as multi-language
availability are provided for enhanced
enjoyment.
DVD-VR
DVD-VR is short for DVD Video
Recording Format; video image storing
standard determined by the DVD forum.
Multi-angle
One of the DVD player's functions.
Because scenes can be recorded in
multiple angles (camera position), users
can choose a desired angle.

Multi-language
As a function of the DVD player, audio
or subtitles for the same video images can

manufactured for that speci¿ c region can
be played.
A disc cannot be played if the region code

In addition, even if a region code is not
indicated on the disc, disc playback may
be prohibited depending on the region. In
this case, a disc may not be playable in
