HINTS FOR CORRECT AND SAFE OPERATION
This CD Changer is designed to be operated only on +12 volt DC negative ground
systems. The unit can not be used on +24 volt or positive ground systems.
The unit may not operate correctly in extremely hot or cold temperatures. The unit is
equipped with a built in self protection circuit. When the temperature reaches a pre-
set level, the protection circuit halts all unit operation. If this should happen, open a
window and allow the car to cool.
Condensation
Moisture can condense on the laser fens of the CD changer during rainy and humid
days, or right after the heater is turned on in the car. If this should happen the unit
will not operate correctly. To remedy the situation, remave the magazine from the
unit and wait approximately one hour. During this time the moisture will evaporate
and the unit will operate normally.
Remove the magazine from the unit when it is not being used during hot weather and
the CD changer is not used for long periods of tine.
When using 8 cm CDs, use a 8 cm CD adapter which conforms to CD standards and
be sure to load the CDs in trays No. 1, 3, and 5 (gray trays). Loading CDs into other
trays will result in a malfunction.
HOW TO USE THE MAGAZINE
@ Loading a disc
1 Pick the tab on the magazine's disc tray
and pulf out only one of the trays.
2 Place the disc on the tray with its play sur-
face facing up (label surface facing down).
* Each tray can accommodate only one
disc.
* *E-07" appears about 8 seconds if the
disc is placed upside down.
3 Press the tab on the disc tray to store the
tray back in the magazine.
* Up to six discs can be loaded.
* Use the 8 cm CD adapter for 8 cm discs.
(See page 3)
B installing the magazine
1 Slide the door toward the right.
2 First check that the magazine with the
discs inside has its top side facing up and
that it is pointed in the right direction for
installation, Push it in until it clicks into
place, indicating that it is now locked.
* When the magazine is used for the first
time, it will not lock into place unless the
power supply has been connected.
« Ejecting the magazine
The magazine is ejected. by pressing the
eject button (4).
Notes: Be absolutely sure to close the
door after having inserted or eject-

will result in malfunctions and shouid
absolutely be avoided.

BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT
Transport Lock Screws
The mechanism in the CD changer is “locked” into
place during shipment by the transport screws,
Be sure to remove the screws prior to installation.
Caution
After removing the transport lock screws, place the supplied seals over the screw holes.
These seals are used to keep dust, which could cause a malfunction, out of the unit.
Installation and Wiring Precautions
4 To prevent a short-circuit,
* Be sure to turn off the ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cabie prior
to installation.
Note
if the changer is to be installed in a car that is equipped with an on-board drive or
navigation computer, do not disconnect the battery cable. If the cable is discon-
nected, the computer memory may be fost. Under these conditions, use extra cau-
tion to avoid causing a short circuit during installation.
2 Do not install the unit in the following locations.
“© Locations exposed to direct sunlight.
Where hot air is discharged from the car heater.
When proper installation is not possible and
where a great deal of vibration is generated.
Be sure to use the supplied brackets arid screws.
When instailing the unit, do not use any screws that are part of the brake or
steering system.
3°
4 This unit cannot be installed in any way except that which is authorized (on its
side, on its end, at a 45° angle or suspended). installing it with its side facing
down or upside down can cause matfunctioning.
Position of the built-in anti-vibration board
This unit can be installed horizontally (suspended), vertically, and at a 45° angle.
Once the instafiation position has been decided, it's necessary to set the position of
the built-in anti-vibration board inside the unit, Please do this before performing the
procedure listed below. Vibration may cause the disc to skip if the unit is used before
properly setting the anti-vibration beard.
* Atthe time of shipping, the built-in anti-vibration board is set for horizontal installa-
tion “H”.
¢ There are built-in anti-vibration boards on both the left and right sides.
* Set the anti-vibration board position with a screwdriver before attaching the brack-
ets.
For use when unit Is instalied horizontally or suspended:
Confirm that the built-in anti-vibration board is set to position
uy,
For use when unit is installed vertically:
The built-in anti-vibration board should be set to position "V”.
For use when unit js Installed at a.45° angle:
The built-in anti-vibration board should be set to position "45°".

HANDLING THE DISCS
Dirt, dust, scratches and warpage cause sound skips during playback and a deterio-
ration of sound quality. Haw to take care of your discs:
Wise
1. Use compact discs that have the mark shown on the right.
2. Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc’s signal surface
(glossy side) with a soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, the compact disc has
No grooves to collect dust and microscopic debris, so gently wiping with a soft
cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to
the outside of the disc, Smali dust particles or light stains will have absolutely no
effect on reproduction quality.
: 9. Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or fluid, benzine or
thinner to clean compact discs. Such chemicals would irreparably damage the
disc’s plastic surface,
4, Discs should be put back in their cases after use to avoid serious scratches that
could cause sound skip.
5, Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for
extended periods of time. Long exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.
6. Do not stick paper or write anything with a ball-point pen on the disc surface.
TROUBLESHOOTING
An error made in operation or in the connections is sometimes mistaken for a failure
or breakdown. Perform the checks described in the following table before calling in
the servicing engineer,

tions).
