Introduction

Operating precautions

Notes on operation

• For your safety, play only at volume levels that allow outside sounds to be heard.

• We recommend using with this player a disc with the logo shown to the left.

• You can play music CDs (CD-R/CD-RW) on this player. Be sure to use discs that have been properly processed. Depending on the editing main unit used, some discs may not play

TEXT

properly.

• Do not insert anything other than a CD into the head unit. Do not insert any foreign objects, such as coins or credit cards, into the disc slot. Be especially watchful of children’s mischief in this regard.

• Avoid severe mechanical shock. When the player is subjected to severe vibration while traveling over a rough surface, playback may be intermittent. When a situation like this occurs, resume playback after returning to a smoother road.

• About dew condensation. In cold or rainy weather, just as the interior glass surface gets fogged, dew (water condensation) may also settle on the main unit. When this occurs, disc playback may become intermittent or impossible. Dehumidify the air in the vehicle for a while before resuming playback.

• Cleaning the disc slot. The disc slot tends to get dusty. Clean it occasionally to prevent accumulated dust from scratching the discs.

About compact discs

• The signal recorded on a compact disc is read by a laser beam, so nothing touches the disc surface. A scratch on the recorded surface or a badly warped disc may cause deteriorated sound quality or intermittent playback. Observe the following precautions to ensure high quality sound performance:

III

About brand new CDs

Rough Edges

Ballpoint pen

Rough Edges

Flakes

• Do not leave an ejected disc in the disc slot for very long; the disc may warp. Discs should be stored in their cases and kept away from high temperature and humidity.

• Do not stick a piece of paper or tape. Do not write on or scratch either side of a disc.

• Discs spin at a high speed inside the main unit. Keep cracked or warped discs out of the player to avoid damage it.

• Avoid touching the recorded surface when handling a disc; handle discs by their edges.

• You may notice that some brand new discs are rough around the centre hole or outside edge. Remove the rough edges with the side of a ballpoint pen, etc. Rough edges may prevent proper loading in the main unit. Flakes from the rough edges may also stick to the recorded surface and interfere with playback.

Operation

About CD accessories

• Do not use accessories (stabilizers, protective seals, laser lens cleaners, etc.) sold for "improving sound performance" or "protecting CDs." The changes in CD thickness or outside dimensions made by these accessories may cause problems in the player.

• Please be sure NOT to attach any ring-shape protector (or other accessory) to your discs. Those protectors are commercially available and said to protect disc and to improve sound quality (and antivibration effect), but they can do more harm than good in regular uses. The most common problems are disc insertion, disc ejections, and won't play problems due to the protector ring that came off in the disc mechanism.

About borrowed CDs

• Do not use a CD with glue or remnants of adhesive tape or labels. They may cause the CD to get stuck inside or damage the main unit.

How to remove CDs

• When removing the ejected disc, pull it straight out along the slot. Pressing downward in the process may scratch the recorded surface of the disc.

OKAY

About irregularly-shaped CDs

• Specially-shaped CDs, like heart-shaped or octagonal CDs, cannot be played. Do not attempt to play them, even with an adapter, since they may damage the player.

•

About cleaning a CD

• Use a commercially available compact disc cleaner to clean a CD, wiping gently from the centre to the edge.

XXXX

• Do not use benzine, thinner, LP record spray or other cleaners on CDs. They may damage a CD’s finish.

About MP3/WMA

ATTENTION

The making of MP3/WMA files by recording from sources such as broadcasts, records, recordings, videos and live performances without permission from the copyright holder for uses other than personal enjoyment is prohibited.

What is MP3/WMA?

MP3/WMA (MPEG Audio Layer III) is a standard format for audio compression technology. By using MP3/WMA a file can be compressed to one-tenth the size of the original.

WMA (Windows Media compressed to a size smaller than MP3 files. This main unit has limitations on MP3/WMA file standards and recorded media and formats that can be used.

Audio) is format for audio compression technology. WMA files can be

Playable MP3/WMA file standards

• Supported standards:MPEG-1 Audio Layer III

• Supported sampling frequencies: 44.1, 48 (kHz)

• Supported bit rate: 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256, 288, 320 (kbps)

• Supported channel modes: stereo

* Supports VBR. (64~320kbps) * Does not support free format.

Playable WMA file standards

• Supported standards: WMA Ver. 7

• Supported sampling frequencies: 32, 44.1, 48 (kHz)

• Supported bit rate: 48, 64, 80, 96, 128, 160, 192, 256, 320 (kbps)

WMA Ver. 8 WMA Ver. 9

*Supports VBR (48~192 kbps). *Does not support lossless compression. *Does not support WMA files recorded at a frequency of 48kHz with a bit rate of 48kbps.

ID3/WMA tag

MP3/WMA files have an "ID3 / WMA Tag" that allows input of information so that data such as song title and artist can be saved. This main unit supports ID3v. 1.0, 1.1 and WMA tags.

Page 24

Operation

Media

Media capable of playing MP3/WMA includes CD-R and CD-RW discs. Compared to CD-ROM media commonly used for music discs, CD-R and CD-RW discs are fragile in high temperature/high humidity environments and one section of the CD-R and CD-RW may become incapable of playback. Fingerprints or scratches on the disc may prevent playback or cause skipping during playback. Sections of a CD-R and CD-RW may deteriorate if left inside a vehicle for long periods of time. It is also recommended that CD-R and CD-RW discs be kept in a light-blocking case because the discs are vulnerable to ultra-violet light.

Format of discs

The format of discs to be used must be ISO9660 Level 1 or Level 2. Control items for this standard are as follows:

• Maximum directory layers: 8 layers

• Maximum characters for folder names/file names:32 (including "." and 3 letter file extension)

•

Allowable characters for folder names/file names:

•

Number of files/folders possible on a single disc: 999

A~Z, 0~9, _ (underscore)

Folder 255

F255

• Total number of folders possible on a single disc:255

• Maximum folders this main unit can recognize: 256* *: A root directory is counted as one folder.

File names

Only files with the MP3/WMA file extension ".mp3", ".wma" can be recognized as MP3/WMA and played. Be sure to save MP3 files with the ".mp3" file extension. Be sure to WMA files with the ".wma" file extension. The "MP" letters of the file extension will be recognized whether entered as uppercase letters or lowercase letters.

CAUTION

If the ".mp3", ".wma" file extension is attached to a file other than an MP3/WMA file, that file will be mistakenly recognized by the main unit as an MP3/WMA file and played, resulting in loud noise output that can damage the speakers. Be sure to avoid attaching the ".mp3", ".wma" file extension to files that are not MP3/WMA files.

Page 25

How to operate the CD/MP3/WMA player

Multi-sessions

Multi-sessions are supported, and playing of CD-R and CD-RW discs with annotated MP3/WMA files is possible. However, when "Track at once" has been written, close the session or process the warning message. Standardize the format of each session without changing the format.

Playing MP3/WMA

When a disc with recorded MP3/WMA files is inserted, the main unit first checks all the files on the disc. No sound is output while the main unit is checking the files on the disc. It is recommended that the disc be recorded without files other than MP3/WMA files and without unnecessary folders in order to speed up the checking of disc files by the main unit.

MP3/WMA playing time display

It is possible that playing time will not be correct, depending on the writing condition of the MP3/ WMA file.

*It is possible that playing time will not be correct when VBR Fast Up/Down is operated.

Display order of MP3/WMA file/folder names

Names of MP3/WMA folders and files within the same level are displayed in the following order.

During automatic scanning, the reception sensitivity switches automatically to one of two levels. Initially the reception sensitivity is

AUTO

Mode

DX Mode

When an optional HD Radio tuner unit is connected, reception sensitivity is set to the AUTO Mode. The DX Mode is unavailable. (U.S.A. only)

set to the low level so that only stations with strong signals are received. If no stations could be received, the reception sensitivity is increased so that stations with weaker signals can also be received.

When a 3-way speaker layout is selected, a 5-band parametric equalizer adjustment can be performed for each of the Hi and Mid ranges, as well as a 1-band adjustment for the low range.

When a 4-way speaker layout is selected, a 7-band parametric equalizer adjustment can be performed.

The delay time and level for the sound from each speaker can be adjusted in to order correct any phase mismatches in the sound resulting from the listening position.

Allocate specified frequency bands to each speaker for improved sound integration.

When original sounds are converted to a MP3/WMA, ATRAC3 format, frequency ranges that are not normally audible to the human ear are compressed. The harmonizer can be used to play back these compressed sounds at as close to their original from as possible so that clear and powerful sound can be enjoyed.

The loudness control may be turned on the emphasize low and high frequencies at low volume levels. Loudness compensates for the apparent weakness of low and high frequencies at low volume by boosting the bass and treble levels.

About parametric EQ

A variety of materials are used inside a vehicle to manufacture the seats and windows, and because these materials absorb and reflect sound in different ways, the parametric equalizer lets you adjust the peaks and dips of the frequency characteristics inside the vehicle to compensate for this.

High

[Sound pressure]

Low

Low [Frequency] High

Peak

Dip

An "equalizer" is a function that corrects these peaks and dips in order to flatten the frequency characteristics. However with a normal graphic equalizer, the median frequency and the Q (sharpness and band width) are fixed, so that when neighboring bands are corrected, there is a limit to the amount by which distortion in the peak and dip characteristics can be corrected. A "parametric equalizer" lets you adjust the median frequency, Q (sharpness and band width) and gain to variable levels, so that you can make fine adjustments to spot areas of the frequency band.

About time alignment

With vehicle audio systems, the installation position of the speakers and the position of the listener mean that the distances from the listener to the left and right speakers are almost always different. These differences in the distance from the listener to each speaker in turn means that the time taken for the sound to reach the listener is different for each speaker. The result of this is that the phases of each speaker (biases) become mismatched and the sound becomes unnatural, as though the sound stage is not wide enough. The "time alignment" function corrects the time taken for the sound waves to reach the listener in order to set the optimum phase for the listening position so that the sound becomes more expansive as though it is being listened to on a sound stage.

The basic adjustment method involves measuring the actual distances to each speaker and calculating the differences in distance relative to the most distant speaker in order to derive the delay time for the sound from each speaker.

About crossover

The frequency band that is stored by audio media such as CDs is a fairly wide range from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, and it is difficult for a single speaker to be able to play back all frequencies in such a wide range.

Because of this, several speakers can be used, with different frequency bands (such as treble, medium and bass) allotted to each speaker so that wide frequency ranges can be played back. The "Crossover" function is used to allot the frequency ranges that are to be played back by each speaker in accordance to the installed speaker units and the layout of the speakers, in order to obtain the maximum level of performance from the speakers and to provide the most stable frequency characteristics.

The crossover function includes a high-pass filter (HPF) for playing back treble sounds, and a lowpass filter (LPF) for playing back bass sounds. In addition, the HPF and LPF are used in combination in order to play back sounds in the mid range.

XII

-3dB

Bass range Medium range Treble range

20Hz

fc*: Cutoff frequency

20kHz

For example, when adjusting the HPF, frequencies that are lower than the specified frequency are progressively dampened, rather than simply not being played back at all. The "slope" adjustment function is the function that is used to adjust these dampening characteristics.

The slope characteristics of a filter are such that with larger slope values (for example 12 dB/oct), the slope becomes steeper, and so the amount of sound mixing in with neighboring bands becomes less so that only the target band is played back. However, it also causes the merging of sound between speakers to become poorer and can result in greater distortion.

Page 66

Various Settings

• The crossover function is a filter that allocates specified frequency bands.

• A high-pass filter (HPF) is a filter that cuts out frequencies that are lower than the specified frequency (bass range) and allows higher frequencies (treble range) to pass through.

• A low-pass filter (LPF) is a filter that cuts out frequencies that are higher than the specified frequency (treble range) and allows lower frequencies (bass range) to pass through.

• The slope is the signal level at which frequencies that are one octave higher or one octave lower are dampened.

When the 4-speaker layout is selected, it corresponds to basic speaker systems which comprise front speakers, rear speakers and an added sub-woofer if necessary. In such cases, the crossover can be used to apply the HPF to the front and rear speakers and the LPF to the sub-woofer so that the sound from all speakers merges properly.

When the 3 way layout is selected, the adjustments can be made to suit speaker system where the front speaker, rear speaker and non-fader output can be switched between Hi, Mid or Low output and the speakers can be combined according to each range (treble range: tweeter, medium range: Mid, bass range: woofer) to provide 3-way playback. In this case, the crossover function can be used to adjust the playback ranges so that the HPF is applied to the treble-range speakers, the HPF and LPF is applied to the medium-range speakers, and the LPF is applied to the bass range speakers so that the sound from all speakers merges properly.

When terrestrial digital broadcasts are received, FM reception has the same quality as a CD, and AM reception has the same quality as conventional FM sound. Depending on the reception status, HD Radio can also receive analog broadcasts, which means reception is still possible in regions with no digital coverage.

There are automatic and manual methods for setting stations in memory. The main unit will accept up to 24 stations in memory: 6 in AM and 18 in FM (6 each for FM1, FM2 and FM3.) (Initial setting)

See "How to operate the tuner" on page 37 for information on the following operations:

• Listening to the tuner

• Tuning to a station

• Entering stations into memory automatically (The automatic preset mode: ASM)

• Manually setting station into memory
