PRECAUTIONS

1. This unit does not operate independently. The unit must be used with a source unit that has a cable connection for CeNET wire bound (sold separately).

2. CD singles cannot be used.

3. ● The pickup, the heart of a player, is built in deep behind the door. Do not leave this door open for extended periods to prevent dust adhering to the pickup.
   ● When the inside of the car is very cold and the player is used soon after switching on the heater, dew may form on the disc or optical parts of the player and proper playback may not be possible. If dew forms on the disc, wipe it with a soft cloth. If dew forms on the optical parts of the player do not use the player for about one hour and the condensation will disappear naturally to allow normal operation.

4. While the system is in play, do not plug or unplug the cables as this will cause damage.

5. This unit is compatible with CD TEXT. When it is connected to a center unit suitable for CD TEXT display, CD TEXT can be displayed. (When it is connected to a center unit without CD TEXT function, CD TEXT can not be displayed.)

6. Do not expose the magazine to direct sunlight, the car heater or other sources of strong heat. Replace the CD magazine (CAA-355) with a new one if bent or otherwise damaged.
   Caution • ONLY use the magazine included with the CDC655Tz, RDC655Tz, CDC655z or RDC655z. For additional magazines, purchase Clarion Model CAA335. Do not attempt to insert different style magazine into the CD changer even if they fit into the magazine opening. Inserting other manufacturers’ magazines or previous Clarion 6 Pack style magazines into the CDC655Tz, RDC655Tz, CDC655z or RDC655z will cause damage to the mechanism and void the warranty.

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING CDs

Use only compact discs bearing the mark and the mark.
Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other specially shaped compact discs
Handling

• New discs may have some roughness around the edge. The set may not work or the sound may skip if such discs are used. Use a ball-point pen, etc., to remove roughness from the edge of the disc.

• Never stick labels on the surface of the compact disc or mark the surface with a pencil or pen.

• Never play a compact disc with any cellophane tape or other glue on it or with peeling off marks.
  If you try to play such a compact disc, you may not be able to get it back out of the CD player or it may damage the CD player.

• Always handle the compact disc by the edges. Never touch the surface.

• Do not use commercially available CD protection sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers, etc.
  These may get caught in the internal mechanism and damage the disc.
  Storage

• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight or any heat source.

• Do not expose compact discs to excess humidity or dust.

• Do not expose compact discs to direct heat from heaters.
  Cleaning

• To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center of the compact disc to the circumference.

• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially available cleaners, anti-static spray or thinner to clean compact discs.

• After using special compact disc cleaner, let the compact disc dry off well before playing it.

CD MAGAZINE

Inserting the CD

1. Turn the magazine over onto its back, put your finger on the disc holder release knob and draw out the disc holder.

   Note:
   • Do not place CDs in the disk holder from above.

3. Press in on the disc holder until it locks securely into the magazine. After loading a CD, make sure that it is correctly loaded.
   Caution
   • Look through the magazine opening and check whether or not the CD is tilted. If the CD is not in the slots on either side of the disc holder, either the mechanism or CD may be damaged.
   If the disc holder does not slide in fully, or slides with difficulty, it is possible that the CD is not correctly loaded. Reload in such cases.

Caution

• Pulling strongly on the disc holder may cause it to come out of the magazine. In such cases, press in on the disc holder tabs and re-insert into the magazine. Be sure that the disc holder is correctly inserted.

SYSTEM EXAMPLE

This unit is available for upgrade in various ways.
When you want to upgrade the system, make sure that the upgrade unit fits and wire it correctly.

INSTALLATION OF CONNECTORS

Note:
Only the provided screws and brackets should be used during installation. Using screws other than those specified will cause damage.

• When the CeNET cable is connected, it must be inserted fully and securely. After connecting, fasten the cable using the cable holder or cable clamp. After connecting, fasten the cables with cable holders, etc.
• When removing the digital optical fiber cable, rotate it to loosen it and pull it gently while holding the slide cap (a gray color part on the source unit).
• Do not coil up the digital optical fiber cable with a radius of less than 1″ (3 cm). With a radius of less than 1″, the performance of the cable will be greatly impaired.
• When installed in a glove box or console box, make sure that the source unit cables or cords do not interfere with the opening or closing of the flip down door.

INSTALLATION

Prior to Installation

1. Before attempting to use this unit you must first remove the packing safety lock screws (3 positions) with a screwdriver. Store these lock screws carefully so they can be used again if needed. Note:
   • Reinstall these lock screws when shipping the unit back for repair.

2. Decide on the installation place and direction.

3. Insert an item such as a screwdriver with a fine point or the tip of a ballpoint pen into the round hole of the installation selector lever to switch to the position you need.

∗ Before shipment from the factory, the levers are normally placed in the horizontal position.

Caution

• Set the installation selector lever to the same position on both sides.
• When the unit is installed below the horizontal position (up to 15 degrees) the ejected magazine, when left in that position, will drop due to vibrations from the car.
• Adjust the installation selector levers into the correct locations. Setting the locations incorrectly or in varied positions will cause skipping.
• Do not move the installation selector levers while the unit is in use. This will cause damage to the mechanism and the disc.

Installation Procedure

1. Use the double seamed hexagonal bolts to fix the lead clamp and installation bracket to the unit (on both sides) in the desired direction of installation.

2. Use the wing nut to hold in place the installation bracket with bolt to the installation bracket, which is attached to the unit. Then affix the cushion rubber.

3. Remove the floor carpet and decide on the place to install. Adjust the installation bracket with bolts to suit the place of installation.
   ∗The installation bracket with bolt may be broken off if it is bent many times at the perforated line.

4. Remove the separator of the cushion rubber that is attached to the installation bracket with bolt and install accordingly.

5. Unfasten the wing nut and remove the unit.

6. Return the floor carpet to its original place. Use a knife to cut into the carpet where the bolt can be felt, and allow the bolt to protrude from the carpet.

7. Align the unit with the bolts and secure it with the wing nuts.
