Care of cassette tapes
(if equipped)
• Because the thickness of a cassette
tape with the total playback time of
over 60 minutes (C-60) are too thin, we
suggest that you do not use any of
them to avoid having tapes being tan-
gled.
• To achieve better sound quality, period- ically clean the tape head using a cot-
ton stick with colorless alcohol (once
per month).
• If a tape is too loose, fasten it to reel by winding with objects like a pencil.
• Because dust or foreign objects on a cassette tape may damage the play-
back head, always store tapes in their
cases when not in use.
• Make sure cassette tapes are kept away from magnetic devices (TV,
stereo system, etc) in order to achieve
better sound quality.
• Be certain that no objects or sub- stances other than cassette tapes are
inserted into the cassette tape player.
• Because tape media can be distorted when exposed to direct sunlight, Do
not leave cassette tapes on the seats,
dashboard or near the back wind-
shield.
Care of di sc (if equipped)
• If the temperature inside the car is too
high, open the car windows for ventilation
before using your car audio.
• Do not apply volatile agents such as benzene and thinner, normal cleaners
and magnetic sprays made for ana-
logue disc onto CDs.
• To prevent the disc surface from get- ting damaged. Hold and carry CDs by
the edges or the edges of the center
hole only.
• Clean the disc surface with a piece of soft cloth before playback (wipe it from the
center to the outside edge.)
• Do not damage the disc surface or attach pieces of sticky tape or paper
onto it.
• Make sure on undesirable matter other than CDs are inserted into the CD
player (Do not insert more than one
CD at a time).
• Keep CDs in their cases after use to protect them from scratches or dirt. • Depending on the type of CD-R/CD-
RW CDs, certain CDs may not operate
normally according to manufacturing
companies or making and recording
methods. In such circumstances, if you
still continue to use those CDs, they
may cause the malfunction of your car
audio system.
✽ NOTICE-Playing an
Incompatible Copy-Protected

Some copy-protected CDs, which do not
comply with the international audio CD
standards (Red Book), may not play on
your car audio. Please note that if you
try to play copy protected CDs and the

forming to your expectation, this may be
caused by those CDs and not a defect in
