Interior Features
●Strong signal noise
This occurs very close to a
transmitter tower. The broad-
cast signals are extremely
strong, so the result is noise
and sound breakup at the
radio receiver.
● Station drift noise
When a vehicle reaches the area of two strong stations broad-
casting at similar frequencies, t he original station may be tempo-
rarily lost and the second station picked up. At this time there will
be some noise from this disturbance.
Station 1
88.1 MHz
Station 2
88.3 MHz
■Condensation phenomenon
Immediately after turning on the hea ter when the vehicle is cold, the
CD or optical components (prism and lens) in the CD player may
become clouded with cond ensation. 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 natu rally in about an hour.
Wait for normal operation to retu rn before attempting to use the
unit.

• A new CD may have roughedges 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 pen-
cil as shown below. 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 legiti mately produced. If illegally-cop-
ied discs such as pirated discs are used, the system may not
operate properly.

• Be sure never to touch thesignal 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, finger smudges, and dirt can decrease the amount of light
reflected from the signal surface, thus affecting sound quality. If
the CD should become soiled, gently wipe it with a soft cloth from
the center of the CD to the edge.
• Do not use record sprays, antist atic 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. Any-
thing 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 defe ctive CDs may be ejected.
• Do not insert cleaning discs in the CD player.
• Do not insert any disc with a peel-off seal affixed 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 characteris-
tics, scratches, smudges, dirt, et c., or due to dust or condensa-
tion on the lens inside the unit.
• Storing CDs in the vehicle exposed to direct sunlight or high tem- perature may damage the CD-R/CD-RWs, and make them
unplayable.
• CD-R/CD-RW exceeding 700 MB cannot be played.
