longer eject.◀
General malfunctions
▷CD/DVD changers and players have been
optimized for performance in vehicles. In

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

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.Seite 202EntertainmentCD/multimedia202
