holding it.  
Checking New CDs for Burrs  
When playing a new CD for the first time,  
check that there are not any burrs stuck to  
the perimeter of the disc or in the central  
hole. CDs with burrs stuck on them may not  
load properly or may skip whilst playing.  
Remove burrs using a ballpoint pen or a  
similar utensil.

displayed along w ith the frequency, advising you quickly  
w hich station is being received.  
RDS (Radio Data System ) stations also transm it frequency  
data for the sam e station. When you are m aking long trips,  
this function autom atically sw itches to the particular  
frequency w ith the best reception for the particular netw ork of  
stations that you w ant to listen to. The data is autom atically  
stored, allow ing you to sw itch quickly to another RDS  
stations, broadcasting the sam e program m e, that has better

If your vehicle's ignition does not have an ACC position, or if  
the ignition cable is connected to a power source with constant  
voltage such as a battery cable, the power will not be linked  
with the ignition (i.e., it will not turn on and off along with the  
ignition). If you want to link the unit's power with the ignition,  
connect the ignition cable to a power source that can be turned  
on and off with the ignition key.  
If the fuse blows, first make sure that the cables have not  
caused a short circuit, then replace the old fuse with one with  
the same rating.  
Do not let unconnected cables or terminals touch metal on the  
car or anything else conducting electricity. To prevent short  
circuits, also do not remove the caps on the ends of the  
unconnected cables or the terminals.

The use of any accessories except for those provided might result  
in damage to the unit. Make sure only to use the accessories  
shipped with the unit, as shown above.  
After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps,

Insulate unconnected cables with vinyl tape or other similar  
material.  
Some disc changers need conversion cables for connection.  
See the section on "Safety Precautions" for details.
