NOTE
The connected audio equipment cannot be adjusted using
the vehicle’s audio system.

Depending on the connected audio equipment, it may pro-
duce noise from the speakers.

Use the connected audio equipment’s own power source,
such as its battery.
Noise may be produced from the speakers if the connected
audio equipment is used while charging it using the acces-
sory socket of the vehicle.

Do not activate the external audio input mode when no
audio equipment is connected.
Otherwise, noise may be produced from the speakers.

Connect audio equipment when the external audio input
mode is deactivated or lower the vehicle’s speaker volume
before connecting it.
Noise may be produced from the speakers if audio equip-
ment is connected after the external audio input mode is
activated.

Compared to the CD player mode and radio mode, the
vehicle’s speaker volume will be lower in the external
audio input mode. Therefore, be careful when switching
from the external audio input mode to the CD player mode
or radio mode since the speaker volume will be higher.

Do not use excessive force on the connection cord. Other-
wise, the cord and connectors may be damaged.

If the connection cord alone is left connected to the auxil-
iary audio connector, noise may be produced from the
speakers.

mercially available audio equipment, refer to the owner’s
manual for the commercially available audio equipment.

N00734100340

Use only the type of compact discs that have the mark
shown in the illustration below. (Playback of CD-R or
CD-RW discs may cause problems.)

cracked discs) or low-quality compact discs (like warped
discs or burrs on the discs) such as those shown will dam-
age the CD player.

In the following circumstances, moisture can form on
compact discs and inside the audio system, preventing
normal operation.
• When there is high humidity (for example, when it is
raining).
• When the temperature suddenly rises, such as right after
the heater is turned on in cold weather.
In this case, wait until the moisture has had time to dry
out.

When the CD player is subjected to violent vibrations,
such as during off-road driving, the tracking may not
work.

When storing compact discs, always store them in their
separate cases. Never place compact discs in direct sun-
light, or in any place where the temperature or humidity is
high.

Never touch the flat surface of the disc where there isn’t a
label. This will damage the disc surface and could affect
the sound quality. When handling a compact disc, always
hold it by the outer edge and the center hole.

To clean a disc, use a soft, clean, dry cloth. Wipe directly
from the center hole toward the outer edge. Do not wipe in
a circle. Never use any chemicals such as benzine, paint
thinner, a disc spray cleaner, or an anti-static agent on the
disc.

Do not use a ball point pen, felt pen, pencil, etc. to write
on the label surface of the disc.
Do not put additional labels or stickers on compact discs.
Also, do not use any compact disc on which a label or
sticker has started to peel off or any compact disc that has
stickiness or other contamination left by a peeled-off label
or sticker. If you use such a compact disc, the CD player
may stop working properly and you may not be able to
eject the compact disc.

Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
N00751900066

You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs
recorded on CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due
to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints,
scratches, etc. on the disc surface.

CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and
high humidity than ordinary music CDs and can therefore
be damaged and rendered unplayable if left inside your
vehicle for a long time.

Depending on the combination of the writing software,
the CD recorder (CD-R/RW drive), and the disc used to
create a CD-R/RW, the disc might not play successfully.

This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session
is not closed.

This player cannot play CD-R/RW discs which contain
data other than CD-DA or MP3 data (Video CD, etc.).

Be sure to observe the handling instructions for the CD-
R/RW disc.
