Error (ERR) Detection

The unit indicates an "ERR" in the display if the focusing mechanism is impaired by moisture, or if tracking or servo problems occur, or if a disc is inserted upside down. The unit switches to the radio mode and ejects the CD. The "ERR" remains lit in the display for 5 seconds, along with the normal information. If a CD is inserted upside down, the CD player is not able to initialize and the unit will not shift into the audio modes; "ERR" is lit in the display and the disc ejects. The "ERR" graphics turn off after 5 seconds or if the disc is reinserted correctly. "ERR" is not lit unless the CD player is active and in the play mode, or if the ambient temperature exceeds a preset temperature and the CD operation is either not functional or in jeopardy of damaging the laser. The disc ejects and "ERR" lights in the display. The "ERR" is maintained in the display until the temperature changes to a safe operating temperature. While "ERR" is displayed the unit does not accept a disc.
