starting key, then switch on the radio. If you
want to move the radio to other vehicle, or
when the radio requests the code, contact your

6 Care and maintenance
Information about disc playback Your radio requires no special maintenance,
but it can be damaged when foreign objects,
e.g. credit cards or coins, are inserted into the
CD slot.
For the best possible playback quality, use only
clean and undamaged discs. The drive is
designed for ordinary 12 cm discs.
Your radio can also play recordable CD- R discs
and re- recordable CD- RW discs as long as
each writing session is properly finalized. Full
compatibility with international standard for
CD- DA discs, so- called “Red Book” is
guaranteed. Some copy protected discs do not
conform to this standard and cannot be played.
Do not play irregularly shaped discs (heart-
shaped, etc.) or discs fitted with scratch
protection. Do not insert discs to which labels
are attached.

Cautions and Instructions
Comfort CodingInformation about disc playback
GB

Discs, when not used, should be returned to
the box. Always hold the disc by the edges or by
an edge and the centre hole, and never touch
the active surface. Fingerprints or scratches
reduce sound quality and may render the disc
unreadable.
CDs exposed to direct sunlight or extreme
temperatures can warp and lock in the player.
Legislation differs from country to country.
When recording from copyrighted media,
check for applicable local legislation.
Your radio provides you with quality sound
under normal conditions. The following text
will help you to maximize your listening
pleasure with ever increasing number of
available stations
In most cases, LW and MW signals are
unaffected by tall buildings or natural
obstacles. Some interference can be caused by
high voltage lines, bridges or lighting storms.
These disturbances are only temporary.
FM transmitters offer higher signal quality than
LW or MW transmitters. Moreover, stereo Hi- Fi
signal is transmitted. Signal spread
LW/MW reception (AM)
FM receptionDistance from transmitter
Signal echoes (multi- way reception FM transmitters are usually located at elevated
locations, e.g. tall buildings, hills, or in the
mountains. There is a reason for this - FM
signals are affected by “line of sight” issues and
their coverage is inherently limited. Usually, the
higher and more powerful the transmitter, the
bigger area is covered. Some local transmitters
or repeaters are low powered and can only be
tuned to within a few kilometers' area. More
powerful transmitters (usually operated by
networked stations) can be received at a
distance of up to 100 km. Anyway, when
exceeding a particular distance from the
transmitter, you have to tune your radio to
alternative frequency. When listening to
stations with weak signal, nearby stronger
stations can interfere with the reception. Such
interference usually occurs as you are nearing
the limit of the area covered by the particular
transmitter you are tuned to.
)
FM signals reflect off buildings, hills and other
objects and these echoes may interfere with
direct signals. This may happen to any signal,
either strong or weak. Multi- way reception
impair the signal, which causes minor audible
faults or even strongly disturbed signal.
16
Signal losses
Warranty FM signals behave like light and cannot
penetrate through buildings, hills, obstacles
etc. Thus places may appear with no signal
coverage, which causes a “crackly” sound
when going through these areas
This car radio is backed up by the same
warranty as a new car. Warranty is void in case
of improper handling, operation, or
unauthorized repair. Warranty is void in case of
exterior damage.
