Compact disc care
Keep the following in mind when playing/handling compact discs
 Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself. They could become stuck in the player.
 CDR discs can cause listening  problems due  to the quality of the disc or recording equipment used.
 DualDisc: The audio side of a  DualDisc (combined CD/DVD) does not meet  CD specifications and  may not play in
your audio system.
 Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a  soft, clean, lint-free cloth, working from  the center  outward. If necessary,
dampen the cloth with a  neutral soap solution. Dry thoroughly before using.
 Never  use cleaning spray or antistatic liquid. Use only cleaners specifically made for CDs.
 Use discs of the correct size only (3.5" discs should never be  used).
 Volvo does not recommend the use of plastic outer rings on the disc.
 Condensation may occur on discs/optical components of the changer in cold winter weather. The disc can be  dried
with a  clean, lint-free cloth. Optical  components in the CD changer may, however,  take up to one  hour to dry off.
 Never  attempt to play a  damaged CD.
 When not in use, the discs should be  stored  in their covers. Avoid storing discs in excessive heat, direct sunlight or
in dusty locations.
