Precautions

Thermal Protection Circuit

Be sure the temperature inside the aircraft is between +60°C (140°F) and –10°C (14°F)
Before attempting to play a disc. If the temperature is over +60°C (140°F), the protection circuit
functions to stop the CD player, and “HI TEMP” is displayed.

Damaged Disc

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