handled. There can be an increase in skipping,
difficulty in nding tracks, and/or difficulty in loadingand ejecting. If these problems occur, check the

with a marking pen.
Notice:If you add any label to a CD, insert
more than one CD into the slot at a time, or
attempt to play scratched or damaged CDs, you
could damage the CD player. When using the

when the information is available. In rare cases, a
radio station can broadcast incorrect information
that causes the radio features to work improperly.
