playing where it stopped, if it
was the last selected audio source.
When a CD is inserted, the CD
symbol displays on the CD. As each
new track starts to play, the track
number displays.
The CD player can play the smaller
3 inch (8 cm) single CDs with an
adapter ring. Full-size CDs and the
smaller CDs are loaded in the
same manner.Care of CDs
If playing a CD-R, the sound quality
can be reduced due to CD-R quality,
the method of recording, the quality
of the music that has been recorded,
and the way the CD-R has been
handled. Handle them carefully.
Store CD-R(s) in their original cases
or other protective cases and away
from direct sunlight and dust. The CD
player scans the bottom surface of
the disc. If the surface of a CD is
damaged, such as cracked, broken,
or scratched, the CD does not play
properly or not at all. Do not touch
the bottom side of a CD while
handling it; this could damage the
surface. Pick up CDs by grasping the
outer edges or the edge of the hole
and the outer edge.
If the surface of a CD is soiled, take
a soft, lint free cloth or dampen a
clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral
detergent solution mixed with water,
and clean it. Make sure the wiping
process starts from the center to
the edge.Care of the CD Player
Do not add any label to a CD, it
could get caught in the CD player. If
a CD is recorded on a personal
computer and a description label is
needed, try labeling the top of
the recorded CD with a marking pen.
To prevent contaminating the lens
of the disc optics with lubricants
internal to the player mechanism the
use of disc lens cleaners is not
advised.
Notice:If a label is added to a CD,
or more than one CD is inserted
into the slot at a time, or an
attempt is made to play scratched
or damaged CDs, the CD player
could be damaged. While using
the CD player, use only CDs in
good condition without any label,
load one CD at a time, and keep
the CD player and the loading slot
free of foreign materials, liquids,
and debris.
If an error displays, see “CD
Messages” later in this section.
