Playing a CD (Single CD Player)
Insert a CD partway into the slot, label side up. The
player will pull it in and the CD should begin playing.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD in the
player, it will stay in the player. When the ignition or
radio is turned on, the CD will start playing where
it stopped, if it was the last selected audio source.
When a CD is inserted, CD and the CD symbol
will appear on the display. As each new track starts
to play the track number will appear on the display.
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.
If playing a CD-R, the sound quality (and playback
performance) may be reduced due to the CD-R quality,
method of recording, the quality of the music that has
been recorded, and the way the CD-R has been handled.
For better playback performance when home burning
audio discs, use brand named CD media with the
[“Compact Disc” trade mark logo], and a burn rate no
faster than 12X.
There may be an increase in skipping, difficulty in
nding tracks, and/or difficulty in loading and ejecting.
If these problems occur, check the bottom surface of
the CD. If the surface of the CD is damaged, suchas cracked, broken, or scratched, the CD will not play
properly. If the surface of the CD is soiled, seeCare
of Your CDs on page 3-100for more information.
If there is no apparent damage, try a known good CD.
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 instead.
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 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 appears on the display, see “CD Messages”
later in this section.
