Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
English
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Cet appareil a été testé et jugé conforme aux limites des appareils numériques de Classe B, aux termes de la Section 15 des Règlements FCC.
Ces limites ont pour but d’assurer une protection raisonnable contre les interférences parasites dans une installation résidentielle.
Cet appareil engendre, utilise et peut émettre une énergie radioélectrique et, s’il n’est pas installé et utilisé en stricte conformité avec ces instructions, il peut provoquer des interférences parasites sur les liaisons radiophoniques. Ceci ne garantit par pour autant qu’une installation particulière ne provoquera aucune interférence.
Si l’appareil engendre des interférences sur la réception des ondes radio ou de télévision, ce qui peut être vérifié en mettant l’appareil hors tension puis sous tension, l’utilisateur est invité à consulter son revendeur ou un technicien exprimenté en radio/télévision pour lui demander conseil.

1. When the inside of the car is very 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 roads which cause severe vibration may cause the sound to skip.
3. This unit uses a precision mechanism. Even in the event that trouble arises, never open the case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate the rotating parts.

Motorized Face
This unit uses motorized face to make large-screen displays possible. When you use the motorized face, be sure to close it.
1. For safety’s sake, always close the
BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET YOUR FINGERS CAUGHT WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING THE MOTORIZED FACE.
MOTORIZED FACE before leaving this unit unused for a prolonged period or switching OFF the ignition key.
Motorized Face
If you switch OFF the ignition key with the MOTORIZED FACE tilted, the MOTORIZED FACE does not close.
2. Before the MOTORIZED FACE closes, there may be a braking sound from the safety mechanism. This is normal.
3. If you move the MOTORIZED FACE by hand, this may create play. To correct this play, with the power on for the unit, press the [Q] button to close the MOTORIZED FACE.
Handling Compact Discs
English
4. After a disc is ejected, the MOTORIZED FACE automatically returns to the tilted or closed state. If there is any obstruction when the MOTORIZED FACE tries to close, the safety mechanism is triggered and the MOTORIZED FACE returns to the open state. If this happens, remove the obstruction, then press the [Q] button.
5. To avoid scratching the compact disk, keep the CD level when inserting or removing them.
Use only compact discs bearing the or
mark.
Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other specially shaped compact discs.
Some CDs recorded in CD-R/CD-RW mode may not be usable.
Handling
• Compared to ordinary music CDs, CD-R and CD-RW discs are both easily affected by high temperature and humidity and some of CD-R and CD-RW discs may not be played. Therefore, do not leave them for a long time in the car.
• New discs may have some roughness around the edges. If such discs are used, the player may not work or the sound may skip. Use a ball-point pen or the like to remove any roughness from the edge of the disc.
• Never stick labels on the surface of the compact disc or mark the surface with a pencil or pen.
• Never play a compact disc with any cellophane tape or other glue on it or with peeling off marks. If you try to play such a compact disc, you may not be able to get it back out of the CD player or it may damage the CD player.
Ball-point pen
Roughness
• Do not use compact discs that have large scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of such discs may cause misoperation or damage.
• To remove a compact disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
• Do not use commercially available CD protection sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers, etc. These may damage the disc or cause breakdown of the internal mechanism.
Storage
• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight or any heat source.
• Do not expose compact discs to excess humidity or dust.
• Do not expose compact discs to direct heat from heaters.
Cleaning
• To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center of the compact disc to the circumference.
• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner to clean compact discs.
• After using special compact disc cleaner, let the compact disc dry off well before playing it.

Attaching the DCP
1. Insert the DCP so that the A section on the right side of the DCP catches on the hook B on the unit.
2. Press the left side C of the DCP carefully to fit it in place.
• The DCP can easily be damaged by
shocks. After removing it, be careful not to drop it or subject it to strong shocks.
