Sirius Control

What is Sirius Satellite Radio?
Over 120 channels of the best entertainment and completely commercial-free music for your car, home or office.
Only SIRIUS has more than 65 original music channels, from today’s hits to R&B oldies to classical master-pieces. From authentic country and real Bluegrass to cool Jazz, hot Latin, Reggae, Rock and many more. Best of all, it’s all completely commercial-free.
SIRIUS also has more than 55 channels of world­class sports, news and entertainment. Included as part of your subscription, you get up to 16 NFL games a week, up to 40 NBA games a week and up to 40 NHL games a week. (Games are broadcasted during their respective seasons.) Coupled with great sports news from ESPN, the SIRIUS sports offering is unrivaled. And don’t forget a host of other great news and entertainment, like NPR, CNBC, Fox News, Radio Disney and E!Entertainment Radio.
With SIRIUS, the emphasis is on the music and entertainment you want. The music is hosted by SIRIUS Jockeys, who are true experts. They back-up the music with compelling information about the song being played, and they understand that sometimes it’s best to just let the music speak for itself.
Rely on SIRIUS rocket science for superior coverage.
Only SIRIUS has three powerful satellites that fly directly over the U.S. ensuring coast-to-coast coverage with high elevation angles. This gives the satellites a “clear line of sight” to your car or home, with much less concern for buildings, trees or other objects that might block conventional satellite signals.
once you experience more than 120 channels of digital entertainment, you’ll never want to leave your car. For more information, visit www.sirius.com.

Maintenance (Continued)
Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
¡ You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW
discs recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface.
¡ CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high
temperatures and high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside a car for extended periods may damage and make playback impossible.
¡ Some CD-R/RWs cannot be played back
successfully due to incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder (CD-R/RW drive) and the discs.
¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the
session is not closed.
¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which
contain other than CD-DA data or MP3.
¡ Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW
disc for handling it.
Recording MP3 files on a CD-media
¡ You are recommended to minimize the chances of
making a disc that contains both CD-DA files and MP3 files.
¡ If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 or
files, the songs may not play in the intended order, or some songs may not play at all.
¡ Do not record files other than MP3 files and
unnecessary folder on a disc.
¡ The name of MP3 file should be added by rules as
shown in the following descriptions and also comply with the rules of each file system.
¡ You may encounter trouble in playing MP3 files or
displaying the information of MP3 files recorded with certain writing software or CD recorders.
¡ The file extension “.mp3” should be assigned to
each file depending on the file format.
¡ This unit does not have the play list function. ¡ Although Multi-session recording is supported, the
use of Disc-at-Once is recommended.
Supported file systems
ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2, Apple Extension to ISO 9660, Joliet, Romeo
Note: Apple HFS, UDF 1.50, MIX mode CD, CD Extra is not supported.
Compression formats
(Recommendation: “Points to remember when making MP3 files” on the next page.)
¡ MPEG 1 audio layer 3

40
Notes on MP3
Note: MP3 encoding and writing software is not supplied with this unit.
Points to remember when making MP3 files
¡ High bit rate and high sampling frequency are
recommended for high quality sounds.
¡ Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not
recommended because playing time is not displayed properly and sound may be skipped.
¡ The playback sound quality differs depending on the
encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the user manual of your own encoding software and writing software.
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps
or more” and “fixed”.
Caution
Never assign the “.mp3”, file name extension to a file that is not in the MP3 format. This may not only produce noise from the speaker damage, but also damage your hearing.
