the SLOPING CONSOLE tries to close, the safety mechanism is triggered and the SLOPING CONSOLE returns to the open state. If this happens, remove the obstruction, then press the [Q] button.

5. To avoid scratching the compact disk, keep the 12 or 8 cm CD level when inserting or removing them.

English

Use only compact discs bearing the or

mark.

Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other specially shaped compact discs.

Some CDs recorded in CD-R/CD-RW mode may not be usable.

Handling

• Compared to ordinary music CDs, CD-R and CD-RW discs are both easily affected by high temperature and humidity and some of CD-R and CD-RW discs may not be played.

Therefore, do not leave them for a long time in the car.

• New discs may have some roughness around the edges. If such discs are used, the player may not work or the sound may skip. Use a ball-point pen or the like to remove any roughness from the edge of the disc.

• Never stick labels on the surface of the compact disc or mark the surface with a pencil or pen.

• Never play a compact disc with any cellophane tape or other glue on it or with peeling off marks. If you try to play such a compact disc, you may not be able to get it back out of the CD player or it may damage the CD player.

• Do not use compact discs that have large scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of such discs may cause misoperation or damage.

• To remove a compact disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.

• Do not use commercially available CD protection sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers, etc. These may damage the disc or cause breakdown of the internal mechanism.

Storage

• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight or any heat source.

• Do not expose compact discs to excess humidity or dust.

• Do not expose compact discs to direct heat from heaters.

Cleaning

• To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center of the compact disc to the circumference.

• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner to clean compact discs.

• After using special compact disc cleaner, let the compact disc dry off well before playing it.

RDS (Radio Data System)

This unit has a built-in RDS decoder system that supports broadcast stations transmitting RDS data.

This system can display the name of the broadcast station being received (PS) and can automatically switch to the broadcast station with the best reception as you move long distances (AF switching).

Also, if a traffic announcement or programme type is broadcast from an RDS station, no matter what mode you are in, this broadcast is received.

Additionally, if EON information is received, this information enables automatic switching of other preset stations on the same network and interruption of the station being received with traffic information from other stations (TP). This function is not available in some areas.

When using the RDS function, always set the radio to FM mode.

• AF : Alternative Frequency

• PS : Programme Service Name

• PTY : Programme Type

MP3/WMA

What is MP3?

MP3 is an audio compression method and classified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards. This audio compression method has penetrated into PC users and become a standard format.

This MP3 features the original audio data compression to about 10 percent of its initial size with a high sound quality. This means that about 10 music CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc or CD-RW disc to allow a long listening time without having to change CDs.

What is WMA?

WMA is the abbreviation of Windows Media Audio, an audio file format developed by Microsoft Corporation.

Notes:

• If you play a file with DRM (Digital Rights Management) for WMA remaining ON, no audio is output. (The WMA indicator blinks.)

• Windows Media™, and the Windows ® logo are trademarks, or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.

● To disable DRM (Digital Rights Manage-

ment):

1. When using Windows Media Player 8, click

on TOOLS ➜ OPTIONS ➜ COPY MUSIC tab, then under COPY SETTINGS, unclick the check box for PROTECT CONTENT. Then, reconstruct files.

2. When using Windows Media Player 9, click

on TOOL ➜ OPTIONS ➜ MUSIC RECORD tab, then under Recording settings, unclick the Check box for RECORD PROTECTED MUSIC. Then, reconstruct files.

Personally constructed WMA files are used at your own responsibility.

Precautions when creating MP3/WMA disc

● Usable sampling rates and bit rates:

1. MP3: Sampling rate 11.025 kHz-48 kHz,

Bit rate: 8 kbps-320 kbps / VBR

2. WMA: Bit rate 48 kbps-192 kbps

● File extensions

1. Always add a file extension “.MP3” or “.WMA”

to MP3 or WMA file by using single byte letters. If you add a file extension other than specified or forget to add the file extension , the file cannot be played.

2. Files without MP3/WMA data will not play. The indication “––:––” appears in the play time display if you attempt to play files without MP3/WMA data.

● Logical format (File system)

1. When writing MP3/WMA file on a CD-R disc or CD-RW disc, please select “ISO9660 level 1, 2 or JOLIET or Romeo” as the writing software format. Normal play may not be possible if the disc is recorded on another format.

2. The folder name and file name can be displayed as the title during MP3/WMA play but the title must be within 128 single byte alphabetical letters and numerals (including an extension).

3. Do not affix a name to a file inside a folder having the same name.

● Folder structure

1. A disc with a folder having more than 8 hierarchical levels will be impossible.

● Number of files or folders

1. Up to 255 files can be recognized per folder. Up to 500 files can be played.

Tracks are played in the order that they were recorded onto a disc. (Tracks might not always be played in the order displayed on the PC.)
