come detached during playback due
to heat buildup and can cause irrepar‐
able damage to the device.▷Only use round CDs/DVDs with a standard

longer eject.◀
General malfunctions
▷CD/DVD changers and players have been
optimized for performance in vehicles. In
some instances they may be more sensitive
to faulty CDs/DVDs than stationary devices
would be.▷If a CD/DVD cannot be played, first check
whether it has been inserted correctly.
Humidity
High levels of humidity can lead to condensation
on the CD/DVD or the laser's scan lens, and
temporarily prevent playback.
Malfunctions involving individual CDs/
DVDs
If malfunctions occur only with particular CDs/
DVDs, this can be due to one of the following
causes:
Home-recorded CDs/DVDs
▷Possible reasons for malfunctions with
home-recorded CDs/DVDs are inconsistent
data creation or recording processes, or
poor quality or old age of the blank CD/DVD.▷Only label CDs/DVDs on the upper side with
a pen intended for this purpose.
Damage
▷Avoid fingerprints, dust, scratches and
moisture.▷Store CDs/DVDs in a sleeve.▷Do not subject CDs/DVDs to temperatures
