Malfunctions

CD/DVD changers and players have been optimized for performance in vehicles. In some instances, the CD/DVD players and changers may be more sensitive to faulty CDs/DVDs than stationary devices would be.

If a CD/DVD cannot be played, first check whether it has been inserted correctly.

Humidity

High levels of humidity can lead to condensation on the CD/DVD or the laser's scan lens, and temporarily prevent playback.

Burned CDs/DVDs

  • Possible reasons for malfunctions with home-recorded CDs/DVDs are inconsistent data creation or recording processes, or poor quality or old age of the blank CD/DVD.
  • Only label CDs/DVDs on the upper side with a pen intended for this purpose.

Using CDs/DVDs correctly

  • Avoid fingerprints, dust, scratches and moisture.
  • Store CDs/DVDs in a sleeve.
  • Do not subject CDs/DVDs to temperatures over 122 ℉/50 ℃, high humidity or direct sunlight.

CDs/DVDs with copy protection

CDs/DVDs are often provided with a copy protection feature by the manufacturer. Copy protection can mean that some CDs/DVDs cannot be played or can only be played to a limited extent.
