• Pick up CDs by grasping the outer
edges or the edge of the hole and
the outer edge.
• Store CDs in their original
cases or other protective cases

Care of the CD Player
Notice: If a label is added to a
CD, or more than one CD is
inserted into the slot at a time, or
an attempt is made to play
scratched or damaged CDs, the
CD player could be damaged.
While using the CD player, use
only CDs in good condition
without any label, load one CD at a
time, and keep the CD player and
the loading slot free of foreign
materials, liquids, and debris.
Do not add any label to a CD, it
could get caught in the CD player.
If a CD is recorded on a personal
computer and a description label is
needed, label the top of the recorded
CD with a marking pen.
The use of CD lens cleaners for
CDs is not advised, due to the risk
of contaminating the lens of the
CD optics with lubricants internal to
the CD player mechanism.
If an error displays, see “CD
Messages” later in this section.

play when the road becomes
smoother.

play when the temperature
returns to normal.
• The air is very humid. Wait about
an hour and try again.
• The CD is dirty, scratched, wet,
or upside down.
• The label is caught in the
CD player.
• The format of the CD is not
