Maintenance
How to clean the connectors
Frequent detachment will deteriorate the
connectors.
To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe
the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth
moistened with alcohol, being careful not to
damage the connectors.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
VCD/CD player in the following cases:
After starting the heater in the car.
If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the VCD/CD player may
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until
the moisture evaporates.
How to handle discs
When removing a disc from
its case, press down the center
holder of the case and lift the
disc out, holding it by the edges.
Always hold the disc by the
edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert
the disc around the center holder (with the
printed surface facing up).
Make sure to store discs into the cases after
use.

that of regular CDs.
Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective
seal stuck to the surface.
Discs on which labels can be directly
printed by an ink jet printer.
Using these discs under high temperatures or
