Tips on handling CDs

on the CDs.
ț Do not write on CDs or apply any labels
or other material to them.
ț Clean CDs from time to time with a
commercially available cleaning cloth.
Never wipe the CD in a circular motion;
instead, wipe it in a straight line start-
ing in the center and moving outward.
Do not use solvents, anti-static sprays,
etc. for cleaning.
ț Replace the CD in its case after use.
ț Protect CDs from heat and direct
sunlight.

Information on MP3 data carriers
Compatible MP3 data carriers
The CD changer can read the following
data carriers in MP3 mode:
ț CD-DA
ț CD-R
ț CD-RW
!
Your CD drive or CD changer* has been de-
signed to play CDs which correspond to the
EN 60908 standard. You can therefore only use
CDs with a maximum thickness of 1.3 mm.
If you insert thicker data carriers, e.g. ones that
have data on both sides (one side with DVD data,
the other side with audio data), they cannot be
ejected and will damage the drive.
i
CD media, CD burning software and
CD writers are available in great variety. Due to
this variety, it cannot be guaranteed that the
CD changer will be able to play every
user-written CD.
The burning process can lead to data errors and
aging of the medium may result in data loss.
Therefore, the CD changer may be restricted in
its ability to play MP3 data carriers; it may play
them with reduced sound quality, or it may not
be able to play them at all.
Problems may be encountered during playback
of user-written CDs with a storage capacity of
more than 700 MB. These CDs do not meet valid
standards as of this printing.
