Mitsubishi Outlander: Handling of compact discs

● Use only the type of compact discs that have the mark shown in the illustration below (playback of CD-R or CDRW discs may cause problems).

● The use of special shaped, damaged compact discs (like cracked discs) or low-quality compact discs (like warped discs or burrs on the discs) such as those shown will damage the CD player.

● In the following circumstances, moisture can form on discs and inside the audio system, preventing normal operation.

• When there is high humidity (for example, when it is raining).

• When the temperature suddenly rises, such as right after the heater is turned on in cold weather.

In this case, wait until the moisture has had time to dry out.

● When the CD player is subjected to violent vibrations, such as during off-road driving, the tracking may not work.

● When storing compact discs, always store them in their separate cases. Never place compact discs in direct sunlight, or in any place where the temperature or humidity is high.

● Never touch the flat surface of the disc where there is not a label. This will damage the disc surface and could affect the sound quality. When handling a compact disc, always hold it by the outer edge and the centre hole.

● To clean a disc, use a soft, clean, dry cloth. Wipe directly from the centre hole toward the outer edge. Do not wipe in a circle. Never use any chemicals such as benzine, paint thinner, a disc spray cleaner, or an anti-static agent on the disc.

● Do not use a ball point pen, felt pen, pencil, etc. to write on the label surface of the disc.

● Do not put additional labels (A) or stickers (B) on compact discs. Also, do not use any compact disc on which a label or sticker has started to peel off or any compact disc that has stickiness or other contamination left by a peeledoff label or sticker. If you use such a compact disc, the CD player may stop working properly and you may not be able to eject the compact disc.

Notes on CD-Rs/RWs

● You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs recorded on CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface.

● CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and high humidity than ordinary music CDs and can therefore be damaged and rendered unplayable if left inside your vehicle for a long time.

● Depending on the combination of the writing software, the CD recorder (CD-R/RW drive), and the disc used to create a CD-R/RW, the disc might not play successfully.

● This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is not closed.

● This player cannot play back CD-R/RW discs which contain other than CD-DA or MP3 data (Video CD, etc.).

● Be sure to observe the handling instructions for the CDR/ RW disc.

WARNING:

There are no user serviceable components inside. If the CD player is not working correctly, it is recommended that you have it inspected.
