Information on how to use a CDCD to jump Uneven road surfaces and strong vibrations may cause the CD to jump. Formation of condensation When it is cold and after rain showers, moisture can deposit in the CD drive  (condensation). This can effect the CD ju 
mp or impair the play function. In such  
cases wait until the moisture has dissipated. Notes for the care of the CDs If a CD is soiled, please never clean the CD  
in the direction of a circle but rather from  
inside to outside with a soft lint-free cloth. In case of severe layers of dir t we recom- mend to clean the CD with a commercially av 
ailable CD cleaner. Also in this case  
do not clean the CD in the direction of a circle but rather from inside to outside and  then let it dry off. Overheating protection If the temperature in the unit exceeds 85°C, the play function of the CD is ended for  safety reasons.
Caution
•
Never use liquids such as gasoline, paint thinner or disk cleaner, otherwise the 
surface of the CD could get damaged!•
Never expose the CD to direct sun rays!
•
Please never write or affix the CD!Note
Dirt or damage of a CD can lead to diffic 
ulties when “reading” the information. The  
difficulty in reading the error depends on th 
e dirt or on the severity of the mechan- 
ical damage. Severe scratches cause reading errors which can make the CD jump  or “ 
get stuck
”. All CDs must be treated carefully and always be stored in a protec- 
tive case.Input AUX-IN*The input for external audio sources  
AUX-IN is located below the armrest  
of the front seats and is marked with the logo

the external input. The play function starts automatically after connecting the external source. 
End play function of the external source – Press the rocker switch  . It starts the play function of the last  
selected radio station. 
– Press the button   and select the CD source for the play function.An external audio source connected to the  
AUX-IN socket is merely replayed via the  
radio and the loudspeakers. The external audio sources  
cannot
 be controlled via  
the radio. You can select another audio source on  
the radio at any time. As long as the  
external audio source is no 
t switched off, it remains always active in the back- 
ground. Please refer to the Owner's manual of the respective manufacturer for the opera- tion of the external audio source. Use the standard jack plug 3.5 mm for the AUX-IN socket. If the external audio  source does not have this jack 
 plug, you must use an adapter. 
Adjust the play function volume of the external audio source The play function volume of the external audio source can be changed via the  volume control on the radio.

Note
•
Your radio has no control over the leve
l setting of the external source. Make  
sure that the highest quality is achieved by a suitable combination of input sensi- tivity and output sensitivity of the extern 
al source (volume control). You will find  
detailed information for this setting in the operating instructions of the units.•
If an external audio source is connected 
 via AUX-IN, which is equipped with an  
adapter for external power supply, it can occur that the audio signal is interrupted.  This depends on the quality of the adapter which is used.•
