1. When the inside of the car is very cold and  
the player is used soon after switching on  
the heater, moisture may form on the disc  
or the optical parts of the player and proper  
playback may not be possible. If moisture  
forms on the disc, wipe it off with a soft  
cloth. If moisture forms on the optical parts  
of the player, do not use the player for about  
one hour and the condensation will disap-  
pear naturally to allow normal operation.
