Safety Precautions Contents

PRECAUTIONS

• Use only in a 12-volt DC negative-ground
electrical system.

• Disconnect the vehicle’s negative battery
terminal while mounting and connecting the
unit.

• When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one
with an identical amperage rating. Using
a fuse with a higher amperage rating may
cause serious damage to the unit.

• DO NOT attempt to disassemble the unit.
Laser beams from the optical pickup are
dangerous to the eyes.

• Make sure that pins or other foreign objects
do not get inside the unit, they may cause
malfunctions, or create safety hazards such
as electrical shock or laser beam exposure.

• If you have parked the car for a long time in
hot or cold weather, wait until the tempera­ture in the car becomes normal before oper­ating the unit.

• Keep the volume at a level at which you can
hear outside warning sounds (horns sirens,
etc.).

CD Notes

• Playing a defective or dusty CD can cause
dropouts in sound.

• Hold CDs as illustrated.

• Do not touch the unlabeled side.

• Do not attach any seal, label or data protec­tion sheet to either side of a disc.

• Do not expose a CD to direct sunlight or ex­cessive heat.

• Wipe a dirty CD from the center outward
with a cleaning cloth.

• Never use solvents such as benzine or alco­hol.

• This unit cannot play 3-inch (8 cm) CDs.

NEVER insert a 3-inch CD contained in the

adapter or an irregularly shaped CD. The
unit may not be able to eject it, resulting in a
malfunction.

• In addition to ordinary CDs, this unit can
playback a CD-R or CD-RW, MP3.

Before Operation

• Do not raise the volume level too much, as
this will block outside sounds, making driv­ing dangerous.

• Stop the car before performing any compli­cated operation.

CAUTION

• DO NOT open covers and do not repair
yourself. Consult the dealer or an experi­enced technician for help.

MP3 Overview

• MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3 and
refers to an audio compression technology
standard.

• This product allows playback of MP3 files on
CD-R or CD-RW discs.

• The unit can read MP3 files written in the
format compliant with ISO 9660. However
it does not support the MP3 data written by
the method of packet write.

• The unit can not read an MP3 file that has a
file extension other than ".mp3".

• If you play a non-MP3 file that has the ".mp3"
extension, you may hear some noise.

• In this manual, we refer to what are called
"MP3 file" and "folder" in PC terminology as
"Track" and "Album", respectively.

• Maximum number of directory level is 8, in­cluding the root directory. Maximum number
of files and folders per disc is 256.

• The unit may not play tracks in the order of
track numbers.

• The unit plays only the audio tracks if a disc
contains both audio tracks and MP3 files.

• When playing a disc of 8 kbps or VBR*, the
elapsed playing time in the display window
will not be correct and also the intro play
may not function properly.

*VBR: Variable Bit Rate.

ENGLISH

Note on creating your own CD-Rs
or CD-RWs containing MP3 files

• To enjoy high quality sound, we recommend
converting to MP3 files with a sampling fre­quency of 44.1 kHz and a fixed bit rate of
128 kbps.

• DO NOT store more than 256 MP3 files per
disc.

• For ISO 9660-compliant format, the maxi­mum allowable depth of nested folders is 8,
including the root directory(folder).

• When CD-R disc is used, playback is possi­ble only for discs which have been finalized.

• Make sure that when MP3 CD-R is burned
that it is formatted as a data disc and NOT
as an audio disc.

• You should not write non-MP3 files or un­needed folders along with MP3 files on the
CD-R otherwise it takes a long time until the
unit starts to play MP3 files.

• With some CD-R media, data may not be
properly written depending on their manu­facturing quality. In this case, data may not
be reproduced correctly. High quality CD-R
disc is recommended.

• Up to 16 characters are displayed for the
name of an Album or a Track. ID3 tag ver­sion 1.x is required.

• Note that the unit may not play tracks in the
order that you wrote them to the disc.

Consignes de sécurité Table des matières

PRÉCAUTIONS

• Raccordez l'appareil uniquement à une ali­mentation 12 volts en courant continu avec
le négatif à la masse.

• Débranchez la borne négative de la batterie
du véhicule pendant le montage et le raccor­dement de l'appareil.

• En cas de remplacement du fusible, veillez
à utiliser un fusible de rechange de calibre
identique. Un fusible de calibre supérieur
peut entraîner des dommages importants au
niveau de l'appareil.

• N'essayez PAS essayer de désassembler
l'appareil. Les faisceaux laser de la tête de
lecture sont dangereux pour les yeux.

• Veillez à ce que des épingles ou autres ob­jets étrangers ne parviennent pas à l'intérieur
de l'appareil, ils pourraient causer des dys­fonctionnements ou entraîner des risques
pour la sécurité, tels qu'une décharge élec­trique ou une exposition au rayon laser.

• Si votre véhicule est resté immobilisé pen­dant une période prolongée par temps
chaud ou froid, attendre que la température
à l'intérieur de celui-ci soit devenue normale
avant d'utiliser l'appareil.

• Réglez le volume sonore à un niveau qui
vous permettra d'entendre les signaux
d'alerte extérieurs (avertisseurs sonores,
sirènes, etc.).

Remarques à propos des CD

• La lecture de CD défectueux ou poussiéreux
peut entraîner des coupures du son.

• Tenez les CD comme montré sur l'illustration.

• Ne touchez pas le côté opposé à celui de
l'étiquette.

• Ne fixez aucun scellé, label ou film de pro­tection des données sur un côté ou l'autre
du disque.

• N'exposez pas un CD directement à la lu­mière du soleil ou à une chaleur excessive.

• Essuyez un CD sale du centre vers l'exté­rieur avec un chiffon propre.

• N'utilisez jamais de solvants tels que de la
benzine ou de l'alcool.

• Cet appareil ne peut pas lire les CD de 3"
(8 cm).

N'introduisez JAMAIS un CD de 3" monté

dans un adaptateur, ni un CD avec un
contour irrégulier. L'appareil pourrait avoir
un problème pour l'éjecter et, par suite, des
dysfonctionnements.

• Outre les CD habituels, cet appareil peut lire
les CD-R ou CD-RW et les fichiers MP3.

Avant l'utilisation

• N'augmentez pas trop le volume sonore afin
de ne pas couvrir les sons venant de l'exté­rieur et rendre ainsi la conduite dangereuse.

• Pour effectuer des manipulations com­plexes, arrêtez le véhicule.

ATTENTION

• N'ouvrez pas les couvercles et n'effectuez
pas de réparations vous-même. Adressez­vous au vendeur ou à un technicien expéri­menté pour avoir de l'aide.
