Handling discs

This unit has been designed to reproduce DVD-
Videos, VCDs, CDs, CD-Rs (Recordable), CD-
RWs (Rewritable), and CD Texts.
• This unit is also 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.

their instructions or cautions carefully.
• Use only "finalized" CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs 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
Center holder
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than
that of regular CDs.
• CD-Rs or CD-RWs are susceptible to high
temperatures or high humidity, so do not leave
them inside your car.
• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
– Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective

high humidity may cause malfunctions or
damage to discs. For example,
