Common Operating Conditions of Your CD Player The following information is designed to help you recognize typical situations that could be mistakenly interpreted as mechanical malfunctions of the disc player. u A disc is already loaded. u The disc is inserted with the label surface downward. u The disc is dusty or defective. u The player's internal temperature is above 140˚F (60˚C). Allow the player to cool off before operating. u Different manufacturers of compact discs may produce discs with different dimensions or tolerances, some of which may not be within industry standards or in accordance with the CD format. Because of this, a new disc that is free of dust and scratches could be defective and may not play on your Ford Compact Disc Player. If play does not begin once the disc has been inserted: u The radio is not on. u The unit is in the stop mode. u Moisture may have condensed on the lenses within the unit. If this occurs, remove the disc and wait approximately an hour until the moisture evaporates. If the sound skips: u Badly scratched discs or extremely rough roads will cause the sound to skip. Skipping will not damage the disc player or scratch the discs. 34
