PlayingBackCDs(CD/CD-R/CD-RW)

This unit has been designed to playback the following CDs:

• CD (Audio CD)

• CD-R (CD-Recordable)

• CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)

Continued use of irregular shape CDs
(heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage
the System.

General Notes

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 system's disc trays closed when not in use.

Whenplayinga CD-Ror CD-RW

User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs
(CD-ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already
"finalized."

• You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs
recorded in music CD format, (However, they may not be
played back depending on their characteristics or recording
conditions.)

• 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 the player's lens is dirty.

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time, This is caused
by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for
regular CDs,
