Playing a CD
If the ignition or radio is turned off, with a CD
in the player, it stays in the player. When
the ignition or radio is turned on, the CD starts
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 also 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.
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. There can 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, such as cracked, broken,
or scratched, the CD does not play properly.
If the surface of the CD is soiled, seeCare of Your
CDs and DVDs on page 285for 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.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.
