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-ReWritable) 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.

Important notices:

• In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your CDs and the mechanism clean.

- Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on

shelves.

- Keep the unit’s carrousel closed when not in use.

• Continuous use of irregular shaped discs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the disc rotating mechanism.

• 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 the ID3v1/1.1 tags (only “Title” and “Artist”) on the display after the file starts play; however, there is a limitation on available characters and some file names and ID3v1/1.1 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.

• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their disc characteristics or recording conditions.
