The causes listed in this document are not a malfunction of the CD drive. Operations in this context are not covered by warranty or goodwill. |
|
| |
Cause 1: |
Remedy 1: |
|
| |
CD thickness is not within tolerance, e.g. DVDs with recordings on both sides (side 1: video data, side 2 audio data). |
1 Inform customer that CDs should correspond to specifications. |
|
| |
CD occasionally not pulled in, light pressure required in addition. Then, CD is not ejected. |
Drives fulfill specifications. |
|
| |
CD does not satisfy specifications. According to CD standards, the thickness must be within the tolerance range of 1.1 mm - 1.5 mm. Previously measured CDs had a thickness of ≥ 1.6 mm. |
|
|
| None |
Cause 2: |
Remedy 2: |
|
| |
Self-made CDs/DVDs used with self-adhesive labels. |
1 Advise customers not to use CDs/DVDs with self-adhesive labels. |
|
| |
Due to the various materials used, the length expansion differs at higher temperatures causing the label to become wavy (see arrows) or the CD/DVD to deform. |
Please also advise your coworkers in Sales. |
|
| |
In both cases, the CDs/DVDs can get stuck and damage to the drive mechanism is possible.
- CDs/DVDs are not ejected.
- CDs/DVDs are not completely ejected.
All head units with CD/DVD drive, all CD changers as well as navigation processors with single-slot drive are affected. |
|
|
| None |
Cause 3: |
Remedy 3: |
|
| |
CDs with a diameter of 8 cm are used (with and without adapter). |
1 Please inform the customer that 8 cm CDs are not to be used (even with an adapter). |
|
| |
The pull in/eject mechanism of the drive is not designed for 8 cm CDs. |
Drives fulfill specifications. |
|
| |
If an adapter is used for 8 cm CDs, the thickness of the CD increases which leads to problems when inserting and ejecting CDs. Furthermore, there is the danger that the 8 cm CD will be pushed out of the adapter while being pulled in/ejected and thereby block the mechanism. |
