Compact Disc Player

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Chevrolet Prizm. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Despite the advantages of non-contact playing, the CD player can be affected by external environment and physical abuse. The following 2 conditions may result if operating circumstances are not ideal:

Skipping - intermittent music is heard along with noticeable tracking motor hum during the skips.
Muting - in severe skip conditions or with detrimental environmental conditions music may cease altogether.

Important:

The CD player will handle some rough driving conditions without skipping or muting, however certain environmental and harsh physical conditions will affect normal operation. Excessive heat or cold, moisture, extreme bumps and vibrations (such as speed bumps and large potholes), and bad discs can result in unwanted operations.

Sound quality and disc player operation will be affected if special care is not given to protect the discs themselves from scratching, moisture, cold, and fingerprints.
