Audiovox P153B Car Stereo System User Manual


 
-13-
l Never insert anything other than a 5" (12 cm) compact disc into
the player as the mechanism can be damaged by foreign
objects.
l Do not attempt to use 3" (8 cm) CD-Single discs in this unit,
either with or without an adaptor, as damage to the player and/
or disc may occur. Such damage will not be covered by the
Warranty on this product.
l When not using the disc player, always remove the compact
disc. Do not leave an ejected disc sitting in the disc slot as this
can expose it to sunlight and other causes of damage.
l Do not attempt to open the unit chassis. There are no user
serviceable parts or adjustments inside.
l When the vehicle warms up during cold weather or under damp
conditions, moisture may condense on the lens of the disc
player. Should this occur, the player will not operate properly
until the moisture has evaporated.
l The unit is designed with a vibration dampening CD mechanism to
minimize interruption of disc play due to normal vibration in a
moving vehicle. When driving on very rough roads, however,
occasional sound skips may occur. This will not scratch or
damage the disc and normal play will resume when the rough
conditions cease.
As with any cassette player, the cassette section of this sound
system does require a minimum of maintenance to keep it in good
working condition. The following simple care and maintenance
suggestions should be followed to prevent malfunctions of the
cassette system.
Cassette Care:
1. Purchase a cassette cleaning kit from your local retail store.
Use it! At least every 20 to 30 hours of operation you must
clean the cassette mechanism. A dirty cassette player will
have a poor sound.
2. Do not use cassettes that exceed 45 minutes of play on each
side.
3. Do not insert a cassette that appears to be broken, twisted
or dirty or with loose or torn labels on it.
4. Always keep your cassettes away from direct sunlight or
exposure to sub-freezing conditions. If a cassette is cold,
allow it to warm up before use.
5. Do not keep a cassette in the player when not in use.
6. Before inserting a cassette in the player, check that the tape
is tightly wound on the reels.
Take up any excess slack using a pencil to turn the drive
hub in the cassette (see diagram).
