Playing a CD
Insert a CD into the loading slot.
The unit turns on, draws
the CD and starts
playback automatically.
Note on One-Touch Operation:
When a CD is already in the loading slot, pressing
CD turns on the unit and starts playback
automatically.
All tracks will be played repeatedly until you stop
playback.
CD OPERATIONS
Note:
When a CD is inserted upside down, “EJECT”
appears on the display and the CD automatically
ejects.
To stop play and eject the CD
Press 0.
CD play stops and the CD automatically ejects
from the loading slot. The source changes to the
tuner (you will hear the last received station.)
• If you change the source, CD play also stops
(without ejecting the CD).
Next time you select “CD” as the source, CD
play starts from where playback has been
stopped previously.
Notes:
• If the ejected disc is not removed for about
15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted again
into the loading slot to protect it from dust.
(CD play will not start this time.)
• You can eject the CD even when the unit is turned
off.
About mistracking:
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely
rough roads. This does not damage the unit and
the CD, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop CD play while
driving on such rough roads.

MAINTENANCE
Handling discs
This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs
and CD-Rs (Recordable).
• This unit is not compatible with MP3 discs.
How to handle discs
When removing a disc
from its case, press down
the center holder of the case and
lift the disc out, holding
it by the edges.
•Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not
touch its recording surface.
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert
the disc around the center holder (with the
printed surface facing up).
•Make sure to store discs into the cases after
use.
To keep discs clean
A dirty disc may not play correctly.
If a disc does become dirty, wipe it
with a soft cloth in a straight line
from center to edge.
To play new discs
New discs may have some rough
spots around the inner and outer
edges. If such a disc is used, this
unit may reject the disc.
To remove these rough spots, rub
the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
CD player in the following cases:
•After starting the heater in the car.
•If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the CD player may
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave
the unit turned on for a few hours until the
moisture evaporates.
When playing a CD-R
Before playing back CD-Rs, read their instructions
or cautions carefully.
•Use only “finalized” CD-Rs.
•Some CD-Rs may not play back on this unit
because of their disc characteristics, and for
the following reasons:
–Discs are dirty or scratched.
– Moisture condensation on the lens inside the
unit.
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.
•CD-Rs are susceptible to high temperatures or
high humidity, so do not leave them inside your
car.
•Do not use following CD-Rs:
–Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal
stuck to the surface.
–Discs on which labels can be directly printed
by an ink jet printer.
Using these discs under high temperatures or
high humidity may cause malfunctions or
damage to discs. For example,
–Stickers or labels may shrink and warp a
disc.
–Stickers or labels may peel off so discs
cannot be ejected.
–Print on discs may get sticky.
Read instructions or cautions about labels and
printable discs carefully.
•CD-RWs (Rewritable) cannot be played back
on this unit.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CDs) into the
loading slot. (Such discs cannot be ejected.)
• Do not insert any disc of unusual shape—like a
heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a
malfunction.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any
heat source or place them in a place subject to
high temperature and humidity. Do not leave
them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example,
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,
benzine, etc.) to clean discs. Center holder
