capability. The kit to enable Satellite
reception is available through your
Lincoln dealer. Detailed Satellite
instructions are included with the
dealer installed kit.
CD mode
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 4.75 in (12
cm) audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility,
certain recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not
function correctly when used in Ford CD players. Irregular
shaped CDs, CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs
with homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted
into the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to
become jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be
identified with permanent felt tip marker rather than adhesive
labels. Ball point pens may damage CDs. Please contact your
dealer for further information.
Playing a previously loaded CD:
To begin CD play (if a CD is already
loaded), press AUDIO hard button
