Precautions

Temperature

Be sure the temperature inside the aircraft is between +60°C (140°F) and
–10°C (14°F) before turning your unit on

Moisture

You may notice CD Playback sound wavering due to condensation. If this
happens, remove the disc from the player and wait about an hour for the
moisture to evaporate.

Damaged Disc

Do not attempt to play cracked, warped, or damaged discs. Playing a bad disc
will cause skipping and could cause severe damage to the playback
mechanism.

Irregular Shaped Discs

Make sure the discs you use in this unit do not have any irregularities. The
outer and inner edges should be round and smooth. Use of irregular shaped
discs may cause damage to the mechanism.

Proper Handling

Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop the disc while handling. Hold the disc
so you will not leave fingerprints on the surface. If the surface is scratched, it
may cause the pickup to skip. Do not affix tape, paper, or gummed labels on
the disc. Do not write on the disc.

Caution for New Discs

When a newly purchased disc is inserted into the changer magazine, the disc
may fail to play after initial loading. This is caused by small bumps around the
center hole and the outside of the disc, which prevent stable loading into the
correct position. To remove the bumps, rub the inside edge of the hole and the
outside edge with a ball point pen or other such instrument, then insert the
disc again.
