Basic and Common Operations (see page 3)

• Pressing one of the source buttons also turns on the System and starts playing back if the source is ready or connected.

Playing Back a Disc (see page 4)

• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.

• For MP3/WMA playback...

– In this manual, “file” and “track” are interchangeably used

for MP3/WMA operations. – This System can show the Tag data (Version 1). – MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time than

regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/

file configuration.) – Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be

skipped. This result from their recording processes and

conditions. – When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or

Level 2 for the disc format. – This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the

extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the

letter case—upper/lower). – It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at a

sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This

System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than

64 kbps. – Playback order of MP3/WMA tracks may be different from

the one you have intended while recording. If a folder

does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are ignored.

• This System can recognize up to 99 groups in a disc. The

total number of groups and tracks (in a disc) that can be recognized by the System is 512 (for MP3/WMA).

Precautions

Notes on the power cord

• When you are away on travel or otherwise for an extended period of time, remove the plug from the wall outlet.

• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the power cord.

• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.

• Disconnect the power cord before cleaning the System or moving the System.

• Do not alter, twist or pull the power cord, or put anything heavy on it, which may cause fire, electric shock, or other accidents.

• If the cord is damaged, consult a dealer and have the power cord replaced with a new one.

Avoid moisture, water, dust, and high temperatures

• Do not place the System in moist or dusty places.

• If water gets inside the System, turn off the power and remove the plug from the wall outlet, then consult your dealer. Using the System in this state may cause a fire or electrical shock.

• Do not expose the System to direct sunlight or place it near a heating device.

Notes on installation

• Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold—between 5˚C (41˚F) and 35˚C (95˚F).

• Do not install the System in a place subject to vibrations.

• Do not put heavy objects on the System.

To prevent malfunction or damage of the System

• Do not insert any metallic objects, such as wires, hairpins, coins, etc. into the System.

• Do not block the vents.

There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your dealer.

Maintenance

To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs and mechanism clean.

Handling discs

• Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge while pressing the center hole lightly.

• Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.

• Put the disc back in its case after use.

• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when placing it back in its case.

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.

To clean the disc:

• Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

Cleaning the System

• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

• Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the following:

– DO NOT wipe it hard. – DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine. – DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecticides to it. – DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact for a long time.
