Operating precautions
Operating precautions
<Your CD3403 will perform well over a long period of time through correct
handling and care.>
Notes on operation
• For your safety, play only at volume levels that allow outside sounds to be
heard.
• We recommend using with this player a disc with
the logo shown to the left.
• You can play music CDs(CD-R/CD-RW) on this
player. Be sure to use discs that have been
properly processed.
Depending on the editing equipment used, some
discs may not play properly.
• Do not insert anything other than a CD into the
disc slot.
Do not insert any foreign objects, such as coins or
credit cards, into the disc slot. Be especially
watchful of children’s mischief in this regard.
• Avoid severe mechanical shock.
When the player is subjected to severe vibration
while traveling over a rough surface, playback
may be intermittent. When a situation like this
occurs, resume playback after returning to a
smoother road.
• About dew condensation.
In cold or rainy weather, just as the interior glass
surface gets fogged, dew (water condensation)
may also settle on the deck. When this occurs,
disc playback may become intermittent or
impossible. Dehumidify the air in the vehicle for a
while before resuming playback.
• Cleaning the disc slot.
The disc slot tends to get dusty. Clean it
occasionally to prevent accumulated dust from
scratching the discs.
10
Operating precautions
About compact discs
• The signal recorded on a compact disc is read by a laser beam, so
nothing touches the disc surface. A scratch on the recorded surface or a
badly warped disc may cause deteriorated sound quality or intermittent
playback. Observe the following precautions to ensure high quality sound
performance:
• Do not leave an ejected disc in the disc slot
for very long; the disc may warp. Discs
should be stored in their cases and kept
away from high temperature and humidity.
• Do not stick a piece of paper or tape on, nor
write on or scratch either side of a disc.
• Discs spin at a high speed inside the deck.
Keep cracked or warped discs out of the
player to avoid damaging it.
• Avoid touching the recorded surface when
handling a disc; handle discs by their edges.
11
Operating precautions
About brand new CDs
About CD accessories
• You may notice that some brand
new discs are rough around the
center hole or outside edge.
Remove the rough edges with
the side of a ballpoint pen, etc.
Rough edges may prevent
proper loading in the deck.
Flakes from the rough edges
may also stick to the recorded
surface and interfere with
playback.
• Do not use accessories
(stabilizers, protective seals, laser
lens cleaners, etc.) sold for
“improving sound performance”
or “protecting CDs.” The changes
in CD thickness or outside
dimensions made by these
accessories may cause problems
in the player.
Rough Edges
Ballpoint
pen
• Please be sure NOT to attach any
ring-shape protector (or other
accessory) to your discs. Those
protectors are commercially
available and said to protect disc
and to improve sound quality
(and antivibration effect), but they
can do more harm than good in
regular uses. The most common
problems are Insert/Eject related
problems and "No playback"
problems due to the protector
ring that came off in the disc
mechanism.

Operating precautions
About borrowed CDs
About irregularly-shaped CDs
• Specially-shaped CDs, like
heart-shaped or octagonal CDs,
cannot be played. Do not
attempt to play them, even with
an adapter, since they may
damage the player.
• Do not use a CD with glue or
remnants of adhesive tape or
labels. They may cause the CD
to get stuck inside or damage
the deck.
How to remove CDs
• When removing the ejected disc,
pull it straight out along the slot.
Pressing downward in the
process may scratch the
recorded surface of the disc.
OKAY
About cleaning a CD
• Use a commercially available compact disc
cleaner to clean a CD, wiping lightly from the
center to the edge.
• Do not use benzine, thinner, LP record spray
or other cleaners on CDs. They may damage
a CD’s finish.
