Safety precautions

• Do not leave the MD in the unit for a

prolonged period. The ejected MD should be
placed in an MD case for storage. 

• Do not leave the MD in a place exposed to

direct sunlight (such as on a instrument
panel) or in other places that reach high
temperatures. The MD cartridge will become
misshapen and will no longer be usable. 

• MDs designed for use with data cannot be

used. Please use MDs designed for music. 

• Do not use lens cleaners. Doing so will lead

to breakdown.

• If the MD performance time exceeds 100

minutes, the lower two digits are displayed
for the performance time.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

This unit is NOT designed to be connected
directly to control units that are manufactured
and sold before 1994. If used with such
units, an optional CA-SD200 (sold separately)
must be used.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN
DAMAGE TO THIS UNIT AND CONTROL
UNIT.

Handling Mini discs

• The MD shutter is designed so that it cannot

be opened. If forced open, the cartridge will
be damaged and use of the MD will no
longer be possible. If the shutter has been
opened due to some cause, be careful not to
touch the recording portion with a finger.
Doing so will cause the sound to skip.

• Do not use an MD that has a peeling label.

Use of an MD that has a loose or peeling
label may cause problems, such as the label
coming off inside the player and the resultant
inability to eject the MD. 

• Wipe away dirt or dust from the cartridge

surface with a dry cloth before use. Using an
oil-soiled cartridge in particular may result in
the disc not loading or being unable to eject
it. (At time of cleaning, be careful not to open
the shutter.)
