Storing stations in memory

You can use one of the following two methods to store broadcasting stations in memory.

• Automatic preset of FM stations: SSM (Strongstation Sequential Memory)

• Manual preset of both FM and AM stations

FM station automatic preset: SSM

You can preset 6 local FM stations in each FM band (FM1, FM2, and FM3).

Local FM stations with the strongest signals are searched and stored automatically in the band number you have selected (FM1, FM2, or FM3). These stations are preset in the number buttons —No.1 (lowest frequency) to No.6 (highest frequency). When automatic preset is over, the station stored in number button 1 will be automatically tuned in.

Manual preset

You can preset up to 6 stations in each band (FM1, FM2, FM3, and AM) manually.

ENGLISH

Ex.: Storing FM station of 92.5 MHz into the

preset number 1 of the FM1 band.

Select the band (FM1 – 3, AM) you want to store stations into (in this example, FM1).

Each time you press the button, the band changes as follows:

FM1 FM2 FM3 AM

Tune in to a station (in this example, of 92.5 MHz).

To tune in to stations of higher frequencies

To tune in to stations of lower frequencies

Repeat the above procedure to store other stations into other preset numbers.

Notes:

• A previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

• Preset stations are erased when the power supply to the memory circuit is interrupted (for example, during battery replacement). If this occurs, preset the stations again.

Tuning in to a preset station

You can easily tune in to a preset station. Remember that you must store stations first. If you have not stored them yet, see “Storing stations in memory” on pages 9 and 10.

Select the band (FM1 – 3, AM).

Each time you press the button, the band changes as follows:

FM1 FM2 FM3 AM

Press and hold the number button (in this example, 1) for more than 2 seconds.

Preset number flashes for a while.

Select the number (1 – 6) for the preset station you want.

MP3 INTRODUCTION

What is MP3?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 Kbps*).

* Bit rate is the average number of bits that one

second of audio data will consume. The unit used is Kbps. To get a better audio quality, choose a higher bit rate. The most popular bit rate for encoding is 128 Kbps.

• For details information about the MP3 discs, refer to “A Guide to MP3/WMA” (separate volume).

Compatible with ID3 Tag

Extra information data such as album title, performer name, song title, recording year, music genre and a brief comment can be stored within an MP3 file.

This unit can show both ID3v1 (Version 1) and ID3v2 (Version 2) tags on the display. (See page

17.)

• Some characters cannot be shown correctly.

• If both ID3v1 and ID3v2 are recorded on a disc, ID3v2 information will be shown.

How are MP3 files recorded and played back?

MP3 “files (tracks)” can be recorded in “folders” —in PC terminology. During recording, the files and folders can be arranged in a way similar to arranging files and folders of computer data. “Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every file and folder can be linked to and be accessed from the root.

The illustration below shows an example of how MP3 files are recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW, how they are played back, and how they are searched for on this unit.

Notes:

• This unit can read a CD-ROM containing MP3 files. However, if non-MP3 files are recorded together with MP3 files, this unit will take a longer time to scan the disc. It may also cause the unit to malfunction.

• This unit cannot read or play an MP3 file without the extension code <.mp3>.

• This unit is not compatible with MP3 file encoded with Layer 1 and Layer 2 formats.

• This unit is not compatible with Playlist**.

**A playlist is a simple text file, used on a PC, which

enables users to make their own playback order without physically rearranging the files.
