2. PRECAUTIONS  
1. When the inside of the car is very cold and the  
player is used soon after switching on the  
heater moisture may form on the disc or the  
optical parts of the player and proper playback  
may not be possible. If moisture forms on the  
disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If moisture  
forms on the optical parts of the player, do not  
use the player for about one hour. The  
condensation will disappear naturally allowing  
normal operation.  
2. Driving on extremely bumpy roads which  
cause severe vibration may cause the sound  
to skip.  
3. This unit uses a precision mechanism. Even  
in the event that trouble arises, never open  
the case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate  
the rotating parts.  
CAUTION  
USE OF CONTROLS, ADJUSTMENTS, OR  
PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER  
THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN, MAY  
RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION  
EXPOSURE.  
THE COMPACT DISC PLAYER and MINI DISC  
PLAYER SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR  
REPAIRED BY ANYONE EXCEPT PROPERLY  
QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.  
CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT  
EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY THE

Motorized Face  
This unit uses motorized face to make large-screen displays possible.  
When you use the motorized face, be sure to close it.  
3. If you move the MOTORIZED FACE by hand,  
CAUTION  
BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET YOUR FINGERS  
CAUGHT WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING  
THE MOTORIZED FACE.  
this may create play. To correct this play, with  
the power on for the unit, press the [Q]  
button to close the MOTORIZED FACE.  
4. After a disc is ejected, the MOTORIZED  
FACE automatically returns to the tilted or  
closed state. If there is any obstruction when  
the MOTORIZED FACE tries to close, the  
safety mechanism is triggered and the  
MOTORIZED FACE returns to the open state.  
If this happens, remove the obstruction, then  
press the [Q] button.  
1. For safety’s sake, always close the  
MOTORIZED FACE before leaving this unit  
unused for a prolonged period or switching  
OFF the ignition key.  
If you switch OFF the ignition key with the  
MOTORIZED FACE tilted, the MOTORIZED  
FACE does not close.  
5. To avoid scratching the compact disk, keep  
the 12 or 8 cm CD level when inserting or  
removing them.  
2. Before the MOTORIZED FACE closes, there  
may be a braking sound from the safety  
mechanism. This is normal.  
Handling Compact Discs  
Do not use compact discs that have large  
scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of  
such discs may cause misoperation or damage.  
Use only compact discs bearing the  
mark.  
or  
Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other  
specially shaped compact discs.  
To remove a compact disc from its storage case,  
press down on the center of the case and lift the  
disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.  
Some CDs recorded in CD-R/CD-RW mode  
may not be usable.  
• Do not use commercially available CD  
protection sheets or discs equipped with  
stabilizers, etc. These may damage the disc or  
cause breakdown of the internal mechanism.  
Handling  
Compared to ordinary music CDs, CD-R and  
CD-RW discs are both easily affected by high  
temperature and humidity and some of CD-R  
and CD-RW discs may not be played. Therefore,  
do not leave them for a long time in the car.  
Storage  
• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight  
or any heat source.  
• Do not expose compact discs to excess  
humidity or dust.  
• Do not expose compact discs to direct heat  
from heaters.  
• New discs may have some roughness around  
the edges. If such  
discs are used, the  
Ball-point pen  
player may not work  
or the sound may  
Roughness  
Cleaning  
skip. Use a ball-point  
pen or the like to  
remove any  
roughness from the  
edge of the disc.  
To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft  
cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center  
of the compact disc to the circumference.  
• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially  
available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner  
to clean compact discs.  
• After using special compact disc cleaner, let  
the compact disc dry off well before playing it.  
Never stick labels on the surface of the compact  
disc or mark the surface with a pencil or pen.  
• Never play a compact disc with any  
cellophane tape or other glue on it or with  
peeling off marks. If you try to play such a  
compact disc, you may not be able to get it  
back out of the CD player or it may damage  
the CD player.

ISR memory  
1. Select the station that you wish to store in ISR  
memory.  
This MP3 features the original audio data  
compression to about 10 percent of its initial
