For 1990-2009 cars

Before inserting a CD, press the EJ (eject) button to make sure that a CD is not already in the player. With ignition on and the radio either on or off, insert a CD, label side up, part way into the slot. The player will pull the CD in and begin to play the CD even if the radio was off.

While your vehicle is on, the CD symbol will be present on the display whenever a CD is present in the CD player. While the CD is playing, the CD symbol will be present on the display along with an indication of which track is being played.

If the radio is off when you install a CD into the CD player, the player will return to the power off state when you eject the CD.

If the radio is off when you install the CD into the CD player and you had pressed the AM/FM button while you were playing the CD, then the last played radio station will be played again when you eject the CD.

#### EJ (In-Dash CD Eject):

Press the EJ button which is located next to the In-Dash CD insertion spot to eject the CD from the In-Dash Player. You can eject a CD regardless of whether the ignition is on or off.

If you eject a CD, then (before removing it from the player) decide you would still like to play it, press the CD/TP button. The CD player will pull the CD back into the player and begin to play.

If you eject the CD, but you do not remove the CD from the player within 15 seconds, the player will automatically pull the CD back in.

#### PRV (Previous) or SEEK/SCAN:

To move to the beginning of the current selection, press either PREV button (Station Frequency Preset Button 1) or SEEK/SCAN button. For either button, if you hold the button down or press the button more than once, the player will continue to move back through the tracks on the CD. When the first track on the CD is reached, pressing the button again will back the CD to the last track on the CD.

#### NEXT or SEEK/SCAN :

To move to the next track, press either the NEXT button (Station Frequency Preset Button 2) or SEEK/SCAN button. For either button, if you hold the button down or press the button more than once, the player will continue to move forward through the tracks on the CD. When you reach the last track on the CD, pressing the button again will advance the track to the first track on the CD.

#### RDM (Random):

To hear the tracks on the CD in a random rather than a sequential order, press the RDM button (Station Frequency Preset Button 5). After pressing the RDM button, the CD player will immediately stop playing the current selection and advance to the first random selection. To skip a selection chosen by the random play feature, press the NEXT button. To repeat a selection only one time, press the PREV button. To turn off random play mode, press the RDM button again. While using the random feature, "RDM" will be present on the display.

The CD player remembers which tracks have been played during random selection so that all the tracks on the CD will be played one time before the tracks are repeated.

If your press the RPT button while in the random mode, the player will keep repeating the track until you cancel the RPT function.

#### RPT (Repeat):

To turn the repeat feature on or off, press RPT button (Station Frequency Preset Button 6). When the repeat track feature is on, the letters "RPT" will be displayed on the display. The current track will keep repeating until you cancel the repeat feature by pressing the RPT button again.

#### REW/FF (Rewind/Fast Forward)

Rewind Function: To quickly rewind within a track, press and hold the REW side of the REW/FF rocker button. You will hear sounds at a reduced volume and the display will show elapsed track time. Release the REW button to resume play.

Fast Forward Function: To quickly advance within a track, press and hold the FF side of the REW/FF rocker button. You will hear sounds at a reduced volume and the display will show elapsed track time. Release the FF button to resume play.

### Error Messages, Probable Cause, and Solutions

Several conditions will cause errors preventing proper CD operation. These include loading a CD upside down, moisture on the CD, a dirty or damaged CD. Moisture on the focusing mechanism internal to the player may also cause an error. When using your CD player, if the radio detects an error, it will let you know by either ejecting the CD or by temporarily displaying Err. If an error message appears on your display, please check the probable cause of the error to correct the problem. Following is a list of possible problems, along with the probable causes and solutions.

If the following solutions do not correct the problem, you may have a CD player failure. See your Saturn retailer or authorized service provider for service.

#### If the CD ejects upon insertion (right after loading):

First check to see if you are inserting the CD upside down. It should be inserted with the label facing upward. Reinstall the CD label side up. If the CD still ejects when it is installed label side up, you could have a warped or cracked CD. Check the CD for problems. Avoid using any cracked or deformed CDs.

#### If the CD either skips, ejects unexpectedly, ejects immediately after loading, or mutes intermittently:

Your CD may be scratched, dirty, or have pinholes. Clean the CD. Refer to Cleaning a Compact Disc.

Once the CD is cleaned, check both sides of it for scratches, dirt, or pinholes. If the CD is damaged or scratched, avoid using it.

#### If the CD will not play:

It could be the result of condensation inside the CD player. The moisture must be dried up before the CD player will operate. Turning on your Saturn climate control system may help speed up this process. It may take an hour before the CD player will operate again. (Condensation occurs for the same reason that eyeglasses fog up when someone walks from the cold outside weather to a warm room during the winter.)

#### If the CD Skips or Mutes Periodically:

Check the road conditions. Skipping can result from momentary vibration from a snowy or rough road, or from the joints on a highway. If the road is fine, check your CD for dirt, scratches or pinholes.

#### If the same selection on the CD is played repeatedly:

Your repeat function may be on. Turn off the repeat function by pressing the RPT button (Station Frequency Present Button 6).

#### If your radio display show "Err" then switches to the previous mode of operation:

Check to see if a CD is stuck in the CD player.

#### CDs not appropriate to use:

Your CD player was designed to be compatible with round digital audio CDs with the "Compact Disc Digital Audio" label. Other CDs may be incompatible, causing a no-play condition, "ERR" shown on the radio display or a jam in the loading mechanism.

Some incompatible CD types are:

• | Special-shaped CDs (any that are not round)

• | Re-writeable CDs (CD-RW type are incompatible)

• | Library CDs (with thick bar-coded labels)
