Fading - As your vehicle moves
away from the radio station, the
signal will weaken and sound will
begin to fade. When this occurs,
we suggest that you select another
station with a stronger signal.
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can dis-
turb the signal causing static or
fluttering noises to occur. Reducing
the treble level may lessen this
effect until the disturbance clears. Station Swapping - As an FM sig-
nal weakens, another more power-
ful signal near the same frequency
may begin to play. This is because
your radio is designed to lock onto
the clearest signal. If this occurs,
select another station with a
stronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig- nals being received from several
directions can cause distortion or
fluttering. This can be caused by a
direct and reflected signal from the
same station, or by signals from
two stations with close frequencies.
If this occurs, select another station
until the condition has passed.
Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does not
mean that something is wrong with
the audio equipment. In such a case,
try to operate mobile devices as far
from the audio equipment as possible.
When using a communication sys-
tem such as a cellular phone or a
radio set inside the vehicle, a sepa-
rate external antenna must be fitted.
When a cellular phone or a radio set
is used with an internal antenna
alone, it may interfere with the vehi-
cle's electrical system and adversely
affect safe operation of the vehicle.

WARNING- Cell phone use
Do not use a cellular phone
while driving. Stop at a safe and
legal location to use a cellular
phone.

NOTICE - Using Compact
Discs
• This device has been manufactured to be com-
patible with software
bearing the following logo marks.
• Do not clean discs with chemical solutions, such as record sprays,
antistatic sprays, antistatic liq-
uids, benzene, or thinners.
• After using a disc, put the disc back in its original case to prevent
disc scratches.
• Hold discs by their edges or within the center hole to prevent damage
to disc surfaces.
• Do not introduce foreign sub- stances into the disc insert/eject
slot. Introducing foreign sub-
stances could damage the device
interior.
• Do not insert two discs simultane- ously.
• When using CD-R/CD-RW discs, differences in disc reading and
playing times may occur depend-
ing on the disc manufacturer, pro-
duction method and the recording
method used. (Continued)(Continued)
• Clean fingerprints and dust off the
disc surface (coated side) with a
soft cloth.
• The use of CD-R/CD-RW discs attached with labels may result in
disc slot jams or difficulties in disc
removal. Such discs may also
result in noise while playing.
• Some CD-R/CD-RW discs may not properly operate depending on
the disc manufacturer, production
method and the recording method
used. If problems persist, trying
using a different CD as continued
use may result in malfunctions.
• The performance of this product may differ depending on the CD-
RW Drive Software.
• Copy-protected CDs such as S- type CDs may not function in the
device. DATA discs cannot be
played. (However, such discs may
still operate but will do so abnor-
mally.) (Continued)(Continued)
• Do not use abnormally shaped
discs (8cm, heart-shaped, octagon-
shaped) as such discs could lead to
malfunctions.
• If the disc is straddled on the disc slot without removal for 10 sec-
onds, the disc will automatically
be re-inserted into the disc player.
• Only genuine audio CDs are sup- ported. Other discs may result in
recognition failure. (e.g. copy CD-
R, CDs with labels)

is already connected when the
ignition is turned on. The USB
device may not operate properly if
the car ignition is turned on or off
with the USB device connected.
• Be careful for static electricity when connecting/disconnecting
USB devices.
• Encoded MP3 Players will not be recognized when connected as an
external device.
• When connecting an external USB device, the vehicle's audio system
