2. PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

For your safety, the driver should not operate the controls while driving.
Also, while driving, keep the volume to a level at which external sounds can be heard.

1. When the interior of the car is extremely
cold and the player is used soon after

switching on the heater, moisture may

form on the disc or the optical parts of the
player and proper playback may not be

possible. If moisture forms on the disc,
wipe it off with a soft cloth. If moisture

forms on the optical parts of the player,
do not use the player for about one hour.

The condensation will disappear naturally
allowing normal operation.

2. Driving on extremely bumpy or rough
roads can cause the disc to skip during
playback.

3. This unit uses precision parts and

components for its operation. In the

event that trouble arises, never open the
case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate
the rotating parts. Contact your Clarion
dealer or service center.
