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.
TEMPERATURE
The unit may not operate correctly in extremely hot or cold
temperatures. It is equipped with a built-in thermal protection
circuit which will stop operation of the unit when the temperature
reachesthepre-setlevel. Ifthisshouldhappen,theunitwillresume
operationwhenthevehicle returns to anormaltemperaturerange.
Removethemagazinefromtheunitwhenitisnotbeingusedduring
hot weather. If the discs are left in an extremely hot car they may
warp. IftheCDchangerisnotusedforlongperiodsof time, remove
the compact discs from the magazine, and store them in their
cases.
CONDENSATION
Moisturecan condenseon the laser lens of the CD changer during
rainyandhumiddays,or right after theheateristurnedon in the car
(if the changer is mounted in the passenger compartment). If this
should happen the unit will not operate correctly. To remedy the
situation, remove the discs from the unit and wait approximately
one hour. During this time the moisture will evaporate and the unit
will operate normally.
INTERRUPTIONS IN SOUND (Skipping)
The sound from the unit may "skip" and be interrupted if the anti-
vibration springs are not set correctly, if the changer is mounted in
excess of a 15° angle, or when travelling on very rough road
surfaces. If this should occur, check for errors made during
installation or wait for the road surface to improve.
3" (8cm) CD-SINGLES
This unit is not designed to play 3" (8cm) CD-Single discs.
Insertinga3"discintothe magazine, either with orwithouta3"disc
adaptor,can damage thechanger and thedisc. Such damage will
not be covered by the Warranty on this product.

HANDLING THE DISCS
Dirt, dust, scratches and warpage cause sound skips during playback and a deterioration of sound quality. To take proper care
of your discs:
1. Use compact discs that have the mark
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 tocollect dustand microscopic debris, so gently wiping witha softcloth should remove
most particles. Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles or light stains will have
absolutely no effect on reproduction quality.
3. Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or fluids, benzine or thinner to clean compact discs. Such
chemicals could 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 the sound to 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, labels, or tape on the disc surface.
7. Do not write with any type of pen, pencil, or marker on the disc surface.
8. To minimize fingerprints and smudges on the signal surface, always try to hold the discs by their outer edge and center hole.
