INFORMATION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
–Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
–Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
–Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
–Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Presetting Stations
You can preset up to 10 FM stations and up to 10 AM stations.
•Preset numbers may have been set to factory test frequencies prior to shipment. This is not a malfunction. You can preset the stations you want into memory by following one of the presetting methods below.
•During presetting stations, if no button operation is made for 4 seconds, the display returns to the band/frequency display. In this case, repeat steps from the beginning.
To Change the FM Reception
Mode
When you are tuned in to an FM stereo broadcast, the “ST (Stereo)” indicator lights up and you can hear stereo effects.
If an FM stereo broadcast is hard to receive or noisy, you can select Monaural mode. Reception improves, but you lose stereo effect.
Press the FM MODE button on the Remote Control so that the “MONO” indicator lights up on the display.

*When the System is in use, the display shows other items as well. For simplicity, we show here only the items described in this section.
This unit has been designed to playback the following CDs:
•Audio CD
•CD-R (CD-Recordable)
•CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)
•MP3 disc (MP3 files recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW)*
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
•User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD-ReWri- table) can be played back when they are already “finalized.”
•Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.
•Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.
•CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.
*For MP3 discs
•This unit manages files and folders on MP3 discs as “tracks” and “albums.”
•Playback order of the MP3 files (tracks) recorded on a disc are determined by the writing (or encoding) application; therefore, playback order may be different from the one you have intended while recording the files and the folders.
•This unit shows the file (track) names and ID3v1 tags (only “Title”, “Artist” and “Album”) on the display after starts play; however, there is a limitation on available characters and some file names and ID3 tags are not shown correctly.
More about MP3 discs
•MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout time. (It varies due to the complexity of the recording configuration.)
•When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 as the disc format.
•This unit does not support multisession recording.
•This unit can play MP3 files only with the following file extensions— “.MP3,” “.Mp3,” “.mP3,” and “.mp3.”
•Non-MP3 files are ignored. 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.
•Non-MP3 folders are counted when reading disc, but ignored during playing back.
•Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their disc characteristics or recorded conditions.
