Notes on DVDs, super video CDs and video CDs
Some playback operations of DVDs, super video CDs and video CDs may be intentionally fixed by software manufacturers. As this player plays DVDs, super video CDs and video CDs according to disc contents designed by the software manufacturer, some playback features of this player may not be available, or other functions may be added.
Also refer to the instructions supplied with the DVDs, super video CDs and video CDs.
Some DVDs made for business purposes may not be played on this player.
Region code of the DVD player and DVDs
This DVD player is designed and manufactured for playback of region “3” encoded DVD software. Region code labels appear on the labels of some DVD discs to indicate which type of player can play those discs. Unless “3” is included in these labels, or “ALL” appears on the DVD disc labels, those discs cannot be played on this player. If you try to play these discs, the message “INVALID REGION” will appear on TV screen. Some DVD discs may not have a region code label even though their playback is prohibited by area limits.
Note on DTS-encoded CDs
When playing DTS-encoded CDs, excessive noise will be exhibited from the analog stereo outputs. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, the consumer should turn down the volume before playing back such a disc, adjust the volume gradually, and keep the volume level low.

Notes on creating MP3 discs

To enjoy high sound quality, create MP3 files with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz and a fixed bit rate of
128kbps.
•When creating MP3 discs
Do not store more than 127 albums in a disc. Also, keep the total number of albums and tracks 300 or less in a disc.
•To play tracks in the order they were recorded
1.Use a writing software capable of recording MP3 tracks
(files) in numerical and alphabetical order. For details on using the software, refer to the operating instructions
supplied with the software.
2. Use only one album. (Do not create a sub-album within En an album.)
3.Include a two or three-digit number at the beginning of each album or track name so that the albums and
tracks are played in order. <example of recommended names>
01XXXXX.mp3
02XXXXX.mp3
03XXXXX.mp3
04XXXXX.mp3
05XXXXX.mp3
<example of names not recommended> 1XXXXX.mp3
5XXXXX.mp3
10XXXXX.mp3
15XXXXX.mp3
20XXXXX.mp3
(Numbers at the beginning have different digit number. The tracks will not be played in this order but played in the order of “1”, “10”, “15”, “20” and “5”.)

BEFORE USE (CONTINUED)
Handling the unit
When shipping the this unit
The original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
When setting the this unit
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR or radio may be distorted during DVD playback. In this case, position the player away from the TV, radio or VCR, or turn off the player after removing the disc.
To keep the surface clean
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the player. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the player for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.
Cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for analog records.
Handling discs
Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
Storing discs
After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sunlight, as there may be a considerable temperature increase inside the car.
Cleaning the unit
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents, such as alcohol, benzine or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the player.
To obtain a clear picture
This unit is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pickup lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.)
For details, please contact your Aiwa dealer.
