other volatile solvents. These may damage external
surfaces or remove indicator characters.
Lens fogging
In cold climates, there may be a period after you turn
on your vehicle's heater when the lens that guides
the laser beam used in your CD player fogs up. If this
happens, you cannot play compact discs. Take out
discs and the fogging will disappear. If it does not
return to normal after several hours, contact your
Kenwood dealer.
Heat protection
In warm climates, when vehicles are left standing in
direct sunlight with the windows closed, the
temperature inside can rise above 60°C. The unit's
protection circuits will then display the message
"HOLD" and prevent the player from operating. Just
open the windows or turn on the air conditioning. As
soon as the "HOLD" message disappears, the player
will operate normally.
