3. Before using the deck
●Be very careful and pay close attention to safety when

●Never continue to use the system if it is malfunctioning in
any way. If smoke, abnormal noises or abnormal odors
are noticed, turn off the power immediately.
Immediately turn off audio in such situations.
●Exercise caution as to the temperature inside the vehicle.
The temperature inside the vehicle can increase during
hot weather. Wait for the temperature inside the vehicle to
drop before using the unit.

Introduction
About discs
●Water droplets (condensation) can form on the inside of the unit during cold or
rainy weather in the same way car windows can fog up. When this happens, the
audio can jump and playback can stop, so ventilate or dehumidify the vehicle for
a short time before operating the equipment.
●To safeguard the components of the player, the unit will automatically stop when
a malfunction occurs. If the player will not operate even when messages
displayed on the screen are followed, it is possible that the unit has been
damaged. Contact the store of purchase.
●It is possible that the sound will skip if the vehicle experiences violent motion on
rough roads.
●An audio or DVD video disc bearing one of the marks shown below can be
played. Only DVD-R/RW (DVD-Recordable/ReWritable) and DVD+R/RW
(DVD+Recordable/ReWritable) discs recorded in Video mode can be played.
Discs recorded in Video mode (VR) cannot be played.
●Supports Dolby Digital. Discs bearing the following mark can be used.
Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories, Inc. Dolby and the double-D symbol are
registered trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
●It is possible that a CD-R (CD-Recordable) or CD-RW (CD-ReWritable) disc will
not play on the unit due to special disc characteristics, scratches, dirt or
deterioration caused by long storage in the vehicle. In addition, an unfinalized
CD-R or CD-RW disc written in CD-R, CD-RW or UDF format will not play on the
unit.
●It is possible that a DVD-R/RW (DVD-Recordable/ReWritable) or DVD+R/RW
(DVD+Recordable/ReWritable) disc will not play on the unit due to special disc
characteristics, scratches, or dirt or deterioration caused by long storage in the
vehicle. In addition, an unfinalized DVD-R or DVD-RW disc will not play on the
unit. It is possible that discs recorded using a computer may not play on the unit
depending on the environment and/or settings of applications.
●The CD-TEXT function requires commercially available CDs which support
CD-TEXT. It is possible that characters in CD-R and CD-RW data may not be
displayed correctly.
●Do not use discs with transparent or semi-transparent portions within the
recording area, or C-thru discs, since they may not be accepted and ejected
properly and may not play properly.
