! Use only normal, round CDs. If you insert ir-
regular, non-round, shaped CDs they may
jam in the CD player or not play properly.
! Check all CDs for cracks, scratches or
warping before playing. CDs that have
cracks, scratches or are warped may not
play properly. Do not use such discs.
! Avoid touching the recorded (non-printed)
surface when handling the disc.
! Store discs in their cases when not in use.
! Keep discs out of direct sunlight and do
not expose the discs to high temperatures.
! Do not attach labels, write on or apply che-
micals to the surface of the discs.
! To clean a CD, wipe the disc with a soft
cloth outward from the center.
! If the heater is used in cold weather, moist-
ure may form on components inside the
CD player. Condensation may cause the CD
player to malfunction. If you think that con-
densation is a problem turn off the CD
player for an hour or so to allow it to dry
out and wipe any damp discs with a soft
cloth to remove the moisture.
! Road shocks may interrupt CD playback.
