Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens inside

the unit. – The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. – The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the

“Packet Write” method.

– There are improper recording conditions (missing data,

etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

General

• This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA) formats. KD-G394 can also play back CD-Rs/ CD-RWs in MP3/WMA formats.

• After ejecting a disc, “NO DISC” appears and you cannot operate some of the buttons. Insert another disc or press SRC to select another playback source.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens inside

the unit. – The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. – The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the

“Packet Write” method.

– There are improper recording conditions (missing data,

etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

Playing an MP3/WMA disc (for KD-G394)

• This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).

• This unit can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files and for WMA files.

• This unit can display only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed.

• This unit can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below:

– Bit rate: 8 kbps — 320 kbps – Sampling frequency: 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1) 24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2) – Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/ Level 2, Romeo, Joliet,

Windows long file name

• The maximum number of characters for file/folder names vary depending on the disc format used (includes 4 extension characters—<.mp3> or <.wma>).

up to 31 characters; Romeo: up to 64 characters; Joliet: up to 32 characters; Windows long file name: up to 126 characters

• This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, 200 folders, and 8 hierarchical levels.

• This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate).

Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the elapsed

time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. In particular, this difference becomes noticeable after performing the search function.

• This unit cannot play back the following files:

– MP3 files encoded in: MP3i and MP3 PRO format, in an

inappropriate format, layer 1/2.

– WMA files: encoded in lossless, professional, and voice

Maintenance

How to clean the connectors

Frequent detachment will deteriorate the connectors. To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth moistened with alcohol, being careful not to damage the connectors.

Connectors

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the following cases:

• After starting the heater in the car.

• If it becomes very humid inside the car. Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture has evaporated.

To keep discs clean

A dirty disc may not play correctly. If a disc does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

• Do not use any solvents (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.

To play new discs

New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a disc is used, this unit may reject the disc. To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

Do not use the following discs:

Single CD (8 cm disc)

Warped disc

ENGLISH

How to handle discs

When removing a disc from its case, press down the center holder

of the case and lift the disc out, holding it by the edges.

• During SSM search... – All previously stored stations are erased and the

stations are stored anew.

– Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest

frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).

– When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will

be automatically tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, the previously

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

Disc operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply

with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

General

• This unit has been designed to reproduce

CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA) formats. KD-G396/ KD-G395 can also play back CD-Rs/CD-RWs in MP3/ WMA formats.

• KD-G396/KD-G395: MP3 and WMA “tracks” (words “file” and “track” are used interchangeably) are recorded in “folders.”

• KD-G396/KD-G395: While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• KD-G396/KD-G395 can only play back files of the same type as those which are detected first if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens

inside the unit. – The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. – The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the

“Packet Write” method. – There are improper recording conditions (missing

data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched,

warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the

reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs: – Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal stuck

to the surface. – Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an

ink jet printer. Using these discs under high temperature or high

humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.

KD-G396/KD-G395: Playing an MP3/WMA disc

• This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).

• This unit can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or

2.4) for MP3 files and for WMA files.

• This unit can display only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed.

• This unit can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below:

– Bit rate: 8 kbps — 320 kbps – Sampling frequency: 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1) 24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2) – Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/ Level 2, Romeo,

Joliet, Windows long file name

• The maximum number of characters for file/folder names vary depending on the disc format used (includes 4 extension characters—<.mp3> or <.wma>).

– ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters – ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters – Romeo: up to 64 characters – Joliet: up to 32 characters – Windows long file name: up to 126 characters

• This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, 200 folders, and 8 hierarchical levels.

• This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate).

Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the

elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. In particular, this difference becomes noticeable after performing the search function.

• This unit cannot play back the following files:

– MP3 files encoded in MP3i and MP3 PRO format. – MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format. – MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2. – WMA files encoded in lossless, professional, and

voice format. – WMA files not based on Windows Media® Audio. – WMA files copy-protected with DRM. – Files which have data such as WAVE, ATRAC3, etc.

• The search function works but search speed is not constant.

Changing the source

• If you change the source, playback also stops (without ejecting the disc).

Next time you select “CD” for the playback source,

disc play starts from where it has been stopped previously.

Ejecting a disc

• If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, it is automatically inserted into the loading slot again to protect it from dust.

• After ejecting a disc, “NO DISC” appears and you cannot operate some of the buttons. Insert another disc or press SRC to select another playback source.

General settings—PSM

• If you change the “AMP GAIN” setting from “HIGH PWR” to “LOW PWR” while the volume level is set higher than “VOL 30,” the unit automatically changes the volume level to “VOL 30.”

Basic operations

Turning on the power

ENGLISH

• By pressing SRC on the unit, you can also turn on the power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.

Turning off the power

• If you turn off the power while listening to a disc, disc play will start from where it had been stopped previously next time you turn on the power.

Tuner operations

Storing stations in memory

• During SSM search...

– All previously stored stations are erased and the

stations are stored anew.

– Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest

frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).

– When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will

be automatically tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, the previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

Disc operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

General

• This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA) formats. KD-G396/ KD-G395 can also play back CD-Rs/CD-RWs in MP3/ WMA formats.

• KD-G396/KD-G395: MP3 and WMA “tracks” (words “file” and “track” are used interchangeably) are recorded in “folders.”

• KD-G396/KD-G395: While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• KD-G396/KD-G395 can only play back files of the same type as those which are detected first if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens

inside the unit. – The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. – The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the

“Packet Write” method. – There are improper recording conditions (missing

data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched,

warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the

reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs: – Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal stuck

to the surface. – Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an

ink jet printer. Using these discs under high temperature or high

humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.

KD-G396/KD-G395: Playing an MP3/WMA disc

• This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).

• This unit can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or

2.4) for MP3 files and for WMA files.

• This unit can display only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed.

• This unit can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below:

• This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, 200 folders, and 8 hierarchical levels.

• This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate).

Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the

elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. In particular, this difference becomes noticeable after performing the search function.

• This unit cannot play back the following files:

– MP3 files encoded in MP3i and MP3 PRO format. – MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format. – MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2. – WMA files encoded in lossless, professional, and

voice format. – WMA files not based on Windows Media® Audio. – WMA files copy-protected with DRM. – Files which have data such as WAVE, ATRAC3, etc.

• The search function works but search speed is not constant.

Changing the source

• If you change the source, playback also stops (without ejecting the disc).

Next time you select “CD” for the playback source,

disc play starts from where it has been stopped previously.

Ejecting a disc

• If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, it is automatically inserted into the loading slot again to protect it from dust.

• After ejecting a disc, “NO DISC” appears and you cannot operate some of the buttons. Insert another disc or press SRC to select another playback source.

ENGLISH

• By pressing SRC on the unit, you can also turn on the power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.

Turning off the power

• If you turn off the power while listening to a disc, disc play will start from where it had been stopped previously next time you turn on the power.

Tuner operations

Storing stations in memory

• During SSM search...

– All previously stored stations are erased and the

stations are stored anew.

– Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest

frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).

– When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will

be automatically tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, the previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

Disc operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

General

• KD-G396/KD-G395: MP3 and WMA “tracks” (words “file” and “track” are used interchangeably) are recorded in “folders.”

• KD-G396/KD-G395: While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• KD-G396/KD-G395 can only play back files of the same type as those which are detected first if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens

inside the unit. – The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. – The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the

“Packet Write” method. – There are improper recording conditions (missing

data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched,

warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the

reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs: – Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal stuck

to the surface. – Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an

ink jet printer. Using these discs under high temperature or high

humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.

• This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, 200 folders, and 8 hierarchical levels.

• This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate).

Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the

elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. In particular, this difference becomes noticeable after performing the search function.

• This unit cannot play back the following files:

– MP3 files encoded in MP3i and MP3 PRO format. – MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format. – MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2. – WMA files encoded in lossless, professional, and

Basic operations

Turning on the power

• By pressing SRC on the unit, you can also turn on the power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.

Turning off the power

• If you turn off the power while listening to a disc, disc play will start from where it had been stopped previously next time you turn on the power.

Tuner operations

Storing stations in memory

• During SSM search...

– All previously stored stations are erased and the

stations are stored anew.

– Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest

frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).

– When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will

be automatically tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, the previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

FM RDS operations

• Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of RDS signals—PI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency) to work correctly. Without receiving these data correctly, Network-Tracking Reception will not operate correctly.

• If a Traffic Announcement is received by TA Standby Reception, the volume level automatically changes to the preset level (TA VOL) if the current level is lower than the preset level.

• When Alternative Frequency Reception is activated (with AF selected), Network-Tracking Reception is also activated automatically. On the other hand, Network-Tracking Reception cannot be deactivated without deactivating Alternative Frequency Reception. (See page 14.)

Disc operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

General

• This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs/ CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA formats.

• MP3 and WMA “tracks” (words “file” and “track” are used interchangeably) are recorded in “folders.”

• While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This unit can only play back files of the same type as those which are detected first if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens

inside the unit. – The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. – The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the

“Packet Write” method. – There are improper recording conditions (missing

data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched,

warped, etc.).

Continued on the next page

ENGLISH

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:

– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal stuck
