c. Precautions for use of discs

CAUTION: Do not look directly at the laser pickup because the CD player

uses an invisible laser beam. Be sure to operate the player only
as instructed.

NOTE:



Do not disassemble any part of the CD player.



Do not apply oil to the CD player.



Do not insert anything but a CD into the CD player.

NOTE:



Copy-protected CDs cannot be played.



CD-Rs and CD-RWs may not be played depending on the
recording conditions or characteristics of the discs, or due to
damage, dirt, or deterioration caused by leaving the discs in the
cabin for a long time.



Unfinalized CD-Rs and CD-RWs cannot be played.



Keep the discs away from dirt. Be careful not to damage the
discs or leave your fingerprints on them.



Hold discs by the outer edge and center hole with the label side
up.



Leaving the disc exposed halfway out of the slot for a long time
after pressing the disc eject button may cause deformation of
the disc, making the disc unusable.



If discs have adhesive tape, stickers, CDR labels, or any traces
of such labels attached, the discs may not be ejected or player
malfunctions may result.



Keep the discs away from direct sunlight. (Exposure to direct
sunlight may cause deformation of the disc, making the disc
unusable.)



Do not use odd-shaped CDs because these may cause player
malfunctions.

player. In such a case, the CD may skip or the CD may stop playing. Ventilate or dehumidify
the cabin for a while before using the player.



The CD may skip if the player experiences strong vibrations when the vehicle is driven on
rough road or similar uneven surfaces.
