CD PLAYER ERROR CODES
If a problem should develop while operating the CD player, an error code (ER-1, ER-2,
ER-3, etc.) may appear on the display panel. This can indicate a number of problems
with the unit, including a mechanical error or an error in the microprocessor control of the
player. If an error code should appear, try ejecting and re-loading the disc into the player.
While the disc is out of the unit, make sure it is clean, undamaged, and loaded correctly
(label surface up). You may also try activating the RESET button dnon the unit, but this
will also erase the time and pre-set memories.
If the suggested measures do not solve the problem, contact an approved warranty
station near you for further assistance.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The radio section of your new sound system does not require any maintenance. We recommend you keep this manual for reference on the
many features found in this unit as well as how to set the clock. The compact disc player section also requires no routine maintenance, but proper
understanding of its use and handling will help you obtain maximum enjoyment of its capabilities. The following points should be observed:
lWhen cleaning the interior of the vehicle, do not get water or cleaning fluids on the unit.
lThe CD player is a precision instrument and will not operate properly in extreme hot or cold. In case of such conditions, wait until the
interior temperature of the vehicle reaches a normal temperature before using the player.
lIf the temperature inside the player gets too hot, a protective circuit will automatically stop play of the disc. In this case, allow the unit
to cool off before operating the player again.
lNever insert anything other than a 5" (12 cm) compact disc into the player as the mechanism can be damaged by foreign objects.
lDo not attempt to use 3" (8 cm) CD-Single discs in this unit, either with or without an adaptor, as damage to the player and/or disc
may occur. Such damage will not be covered by the Warranty on this product.
lWhen not using the disc player, always remove the compact disc.

Built into this radio are controls to operate an optional CD changer.
Please check with your Rampage/Audiovox car stereo specialist or call
1-800-645-4994 for recommendations of the models that will work
with this radio. Connection between the radio and CD changer is made
