Notes BMW CD/DVD players and changers are officially designated Class 1 laser products. Do not operate if the cover is damaged, otherwise severe eye damage can result. Do not use self-recorded CDs with adhesive labels as these can come loose during playback due to heat build-up and cause irreparable damage to the system. Only use round CDs/DVDs with a standard diameter of 4.7 in/12 cm and do not play CDs/ DVDs with an adapter, e.g. Single-CDs, otherwise the CDs or the adapter can jam and may no longer be ejected. Do not use a combined CD/DVD, e.g. DVDPlus; otherwise, the CD/DVD can jam and will no longer eject.< Damaged CDs/DVDs Avoid fingerprints dust, scratches, and moisture. Keep CDs/DVDs in a sleeve. Do not subject CDs/DVDs to temperatures over 122 7/506, high levels of humidity or direct sunlight. CDs/DVDs with copy protection Manufacturers often provide CDs/DVDs with copy protection. This can mean that some CDs/ DVDs cannot be played or can only be played to a limited extent. Care If necessary, clean the reflective scanning side of the CDs/DVDs with a commercially available cleaning cloth by wiping in straight lines from the center outward. General malfunctions BMW CD/DVD changers and players have been optimized for performance in vehicles. In some instances they may be more sensitive to faulty CDs/DVDs than stationary devices would be. If a CD/DVD cannot be played, first check whether it has been inserted correctly. Humidity High levels of humidity can lead to condensation on the CD/DVD or the laser's scan lens and temporarily prevent playback. Malfunctions with individual CDs/DVDs If malfunctions occur only with particular CDs/ DVDs, this can be due to one of the following causes. Home-recorded CDs/DVDs Possible reasons for malfunctions with selfrecorded CDs/DVDs are, e.g., inconsistent data-creation or recording processes, or poor quality or advanced age of the CD/DVD blank. Label CDs/DVDs only on the top, using a marker designed for this purpose. 169 Online Edition for Part no. 01 41 0 014 244 - © 08/07 BMW AG Reference Mobility Communications Entertainment Navigation Driving tips Controls At a glance
