Operating precautions
Your CH3083 will perform well over a long period of time through correct
handling and care.
• For your safety, play only at volume levels that allow outside sounds to
be heard.
• We recommend using with this player a disc
with the logo shown to the left.
• You can play music CDs(CD-R/CD-RW) on
this player. Be sure to use discs that have
been properly processed.
• Depending on the editing equipment used,
some discs may not play properly.
• You cannot play MP3 CD-R/CD-RW discs
on this player.
• Avoid severe mechanical shock.
When the player is subjected to severe
vibration while traveling over a rough
surface, playback may be intermittent.
When a situation like this occurs, resume
playback after returning to a smoother
road.
• About dew condensation.
In cold or rainy weather, just as the interior
glass surface gets fogged, dew (water
condensation) may also settle on the deck.
When this occurs, disc playback may
become intermittent or impossible.
Dehumidify the air in the vehicle for a while
before resuming playback.

Operating precautions
• The signal recorded on a compact disc is read by a laser beam, so
nothing touches the disc surface. A scratch on the recorded surface or
a badly warped disc may cause deteriorated sound quality or
intermittent playback. Observe the following precautions to ensure high
quality sound performance:
• Do not stick a piece of paper or tape on,
nor write on or scratch either side of a
disc.
• Discs spin at a high speed inside the
deck. Keep cracked or warped discs out
of the player to avoid damaging it.
• Avoid touching the recorded surface when
handling a disc; handle discs by their
edges.
About compact discs
About CD accessories
• Do not use accessories
(stabilizers, protective seals, laser
lens cleaners, etc.) sold for
“improving sound performance”
or “protecting CDs.” The
changes in CD thickness or
outside dimensions made by
these accessories may cause
problems in the player.
About brand new CDs
• You may notice that some brand
new discs are rough around the
center hole or outside edge.
Remove the rough edges with
the side of a ballpoint pen, etc.
Rough edges may prevent
proper loading in the deck.
Flakes from the rough edges
may also stick to the recorded
surface and interfere with
playback.

• Please be sure NOT to attach any
ring-shape protector (or other
accessory) to your discs. Those
protectors are commercially
available and said to protect disc
and to improve sound quality
(and antivibration effect), but they
can do more harm than good in
regular uses. The most common
problems are Insert/Eject related
problems and "No playback"
problems due to the protectorring
that came off in the disc
mechanism.
