Weak signal noise
In suburban areas, broadcast signals
become weak because of distance from the
transmitter. Reception in such fringe areas
is characterized by sound breakup.
Strong signal noise
This occurs very close to a transmitter
tower. The broadcast 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 broadcasting at similar
frequencies, the original station may be
temporarily lost and the second station
picked up. At this tim e there will be some
noise from this disturbance.
Station 2
88.3 MHz
Station 1
88.1 MHz

Operating Tips for CD Player
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 c
loth. Clouded optical
components will clear naturally in about
an hour. Wait for normal operation to
return before attemp ting 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.

MX-5_8GF7-EA-17J_Edition2 2017-10-31 14:07:27

If the memory portion of the CD is
transparent or translucent, do not use the
disc.
Transparent
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 resulti ng in a malfunction.
Remove the rough edges in advance by
using a ball-point pen or pencil as
shown in the following figure. To
remove the rough edges, rub the side of
the pen or pencil ag ainst 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 oute r edge or the edge
of the hole and the outer edge.
Do not stick paper o r 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 smudge s, 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.
Interior Features
Appendix

MX-5_8GF7-EA-17J_Edition2 2017-10-31 14:07:27

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 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
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 hi gh 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 affixed. The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.
▼ Operating Tips for MP3
MP3 stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3,
which is standardized voice compression
established by the ISO
*1 working group
(MPEG).
Use of MP3 allows for audio data to be
compressed to approximately a tenth of
the source data size.
This unit plays files with the extension
(.mp3) as MP3 files.
*1 International Organization for Standardization
CAUTION
Do not use an audio file extension on files
other than audio files. In addition, do not
change the audio file extension. Otherwise,
the unit will not recognize the file correctly
resulting in noise or a malfunction.
