50Troubleshooting the CD Player
The laser beam used in the
compact disc player is
harmful to the eyes. Do not
attempt to disassemble the case.
If sound skips:
• You may be travelling on a rough
road, playing scratched discs or the
disc may be dirty. Skipping will not
scratch the discs or damage the
player.
If player does not work:
• The disc is inserted with the label
surface downward.
• The disc is dusty or defective.
• The player’s internal temperature
is above 75°C (167°F). Allow the
player to cool down before
operating.
• A disc with format and
dimensions not within industry
standards is inserted.
Cleaning compact discs
Inspect all discs for contamination
before playing. If necessary, clean
discs only with an approved CD
cleaner and wipe the center out to
the edge. Do not use circular
motion.
