Care And Maintenance; Handling Compact Discs - Phase Linear PCD163 Manual Del Usario

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your new radio/CD player does not require any
maintenance. However, proper understanding
of its use and handling will help you obtain
maximum enjoyment of its capabilities. We
recommend that you keep this manual for
reference on the many features of this unit as
well as how to set the clock. The following
points should be observed:
• When cleaning the interior of the vehicle,
do not get water or cleaning fluids on the
unit.
• The CD player is a precision instrument
and will not operate properly in extreme
heat or cold. If such conditions occur, wait
until the interior of the vehicle reaches a
normal temperature before using the
player.
• If the temperature inside the player gets
too hot, a protective circuit will
automatically stop play of the disc. In this
case, allow the unit to cool before
operating the player again.
• Never insert anything other than a 5" (12
cm) compact disc into the player as the
mechanism can be damaged by foreign
objects.
• Do not attempt to use 3" (8 cm) CD-Single
discs in this unit, either with or without an
adaptor, as damage to the player and/or
disc may occur. Such damage will not be
covered by the Warranty on this product.
• When not using the disc player, always
remove the compact disc. Do not leave an
ejected disc sitting in the disc slot as this
can expose it to sunlight and other causes
of damage.
• Do not attempt to open the unit chassis.
There are no user-serviceable parts or
adjustment points inside.
• When the vehicle warms up during cold
weather or under damp conditions,
condensation may appear on the lens of
the disc player. Should this occur, the
player will not operate properly until the
moisture has evaporated.
• The unit is designed with a vibration
dampening CD mechanism to minimize
interruption of disc play due to normal
vibration. When driving on rough roads,
however, occasional sound skips may
occur. This will not scratch or damage the
disc and normal play will resume when the
rough conditions cease.

Handling Compact Discs

Dirt, dust, scratches and warping can cause
skips in the playback and deterioration of sound
quality. Please follow these guidelines to take
care of your compact discs:

• Carefully wipe fingerprints, dust and dirt
from the disc's playing surface with a soft
cloth. Wipe in a straight motion from the
center to the outside of the disc.

sprays or household cleaners to clean
CDs, as they can irreparably damage the
disc's surface.

cases when not in use.

high temperatures or high humidity for
long periods.

surfaces.
