Service Information

With the advent of new technology, some customers may be copying music from other types of media to CDs. Currently, three types of CDs are available. However, only one of these types is compatible, and preferred for use, in the CD players/changers used in Isuzu vehicles.

Genuine Isuzu CD players/changers were designed for use with compact discs bearing the Compact Disc Digital Audio symbol. It is important that the customer always use discs bearing this symbol in their vehicle's CD/player/changer. Discs bearing the Compact Disc Recordable (CD-R) or the Compact Disc Rewritable (CD-RW) symbols may not play in these CD players/changers.
